He said that the trilateral working group is discussing options of unblocking transport communication, the legal regulations of which will be carried out exclusively upon the CIS legal framework, treaties and conventions which are in force and to which Armenia is a signatory of. “I don’t have a discussion in any other format in that platform.”
