A1+
[01:54 pm] 12 April, 2007
Yesterday Armenian and Azerbaijan delegations met in Neon, Switzerland
to talk over the permit for the matches held in September 8 and 12
in the frames of 'Euro-2008'.
Ruben Hayrapetyan, chairman of RA Football Federation and Armen
Minasyan, Executive director from Armenia and Ramiz Mirzoev, chairman
of Azerbaijan Football Association were the parties for the discussion.
The meeting was not productive; the latter lasted an hour and a
half. Armenian party suggested the meeting to be held in Yerevan
and Baku based on the regulations, whereas Azeris were against it
and offered a neutral zone. Ra Football Federation agreed to play
just Baku match in neutral zone. What concerns Yerevan match, Ruben
Hayrapetyan was categorical as far as RA Government provided UEFA
with safety security guarantees.
Hence, the issue will clear up at UEFA executive body session on
April 18, in Cardiff.
