The seventh meeting between the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan
Serzh Sargsyan and Ilham Aliyev started in Moscow a few minutes ago.

The meeting is particularly important, because it follows the statement
the Presidents of the United States, Russia and France issued within
the framework of the Group of Eight summit in Italy and the revealing
of the Madrid Principles.

President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan was the first to arrive at the
President Hotel. Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan arrived a few
minutes later.

The Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan shook hands and the meeting
started. The Foreign Ministers of the two countries and the co-chairs
of the OSCE Minsk Group participate in the meeting.
