Presidents of Armenia and Russia, Serzh Sargsyan and Vladimir Putin
will meet on April 24 in Yerevan and discuss the Karabakh issue among
others, Leonid Slutsky, the head of the State Duma Committee for CIS,
Eurasian Integration and Compatriots, told reporters in Yerevan.

“The Karabakh conflict is a sensitive and delicate matter. The
negotiations are held within the OSCE Minsk Group format. There is
another format of trilateral negotiations between the presidents,”
Slutsky said recalling the August 2014 meeting of the Armenian,
Azerbaijani, and Russian presidents in Sochi wherein, as he said,
the settlement was discussed rather comprehensively.

Slutsky hopes for “symbolic steps” in the Karabakh peace process
within the coming months. He stressed the need for sooner settlement
of the conflict given the latest upsurge in tensions on the frontline.
