Armenia, Azerbaijan can make progress in Karabakh settlement – minister

YEREVAN Jan 14

Armenia and Azerbaijan can make progress in the Karabakh settlement if
‘positive dynamics’ persists, Armenian Foreign Minister Eduard
Nalbandian told a Thursday press conference.

"If positive dynamics are retained, the sides may progress in the
Karabakh settlement. The Armenian and Azeri leaders will soon resume
their meetings," he said.

There is no alterative to the peaceful settlement of the Karabakh
conflict, the minister said.

"Armenia has never threatened to resolve the conflict by force. It
adherences to exclusively peaceful settlement methods," he said.
