Acting Foreign Minister of Armenia Zohrab Mnatsakanyan and his Azerbaijani counterpart Elmar Mammadyarov held a meeting on Wednesday in Paris. As the press department at the foreign ministry reported, the meeting was initiated and attended by the Minsk Group Co-Chairs Igor Popov, Stephane Visconti, and Andrew Schofer of the OSCE Minsk Group in Paris. The Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk partook in the meeting.

According to the official release, a useful and constructive exchange of thoughts took place aimed at establishing mutual trust and better understanding.

During the meeting that lasted for four hours, the interlocutors reflected on wide scope of issues pertaining to the NK peace process, including on preparing people for peace, security matters as well as the sustainable development of  the region. 

The ministers have agreed to continue the consistent and targeted work for the upcoming months, yet no scheduled dates have been confirmed.  

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
