/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Moscow’s initiative to hold a trilateral meeting
is a normal phenomenon. It’s quite clear that Russia has its own
interests in the Caucasus, Eduard Sharmazanov, a spokesman for the
Republican Party of Armenia, told a news conference today.

"As the co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia should endeavor for
resolution of the Karabakh conflict and certainly, its initiative for a
trilateral meeting was welcomed by the other co-chair states," he said.

During the November 2 meeting, the Presidents Dmitry Medvedev of
Russia, Serzh Sargsyan of Armenia and Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan
signed a declaration envisaging resolution of the Karabakh conflict
on the basis of principles and norms of the international law.
