Yerevan supports a peaceful solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
on the basis of a compromise, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said
at a meeting with EU ambassadors, the Armenian president’s press
service told Interfax-AVN.

"I hold that the possibilities for solution of the conflict still
exist, if the talks based on fundamental principles continue," he said.

the upcoming meeting between the Armenian and Azeri presidents in
St. Petersburg would bring forth good results.

"I hope for a positive meeting between the presidents that will
make it possible for us to continue the negotiating process on the
settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflicts," Nalbandian told the
