Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has discussed prospects in
talks on the settlement in Nagorno Karabakh with his Armenian and
Azerbaijani counterparts Vardan Oskanian and Elmar Mamedyarov.
The Foreign Ministry report received by Interfax on Tuesday says
that Oskanian and Mamedyarov held consultations on the settlement,
in the attendance of international mediators - cochairmen of the OSCE
Minsk Group.
Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin represented the Russian side
at the meeting.
"The present state and prospects in the negotiating process on Nagorno
Karabakh were discussed during the meeting," the report says.
An earlier report said that Moscow would host the talks between the
foreign ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia on the Karabakh conflict
and that it would be the first meeting at such a level in 2007.
The next meeting between the presidents of the two countries on a
peaceful settlement of the problem hinges on the results of the talks
between the foreign ministers.
Diplomatic sources told Interfax that the talks ended, but that the
results were not disclosed. Mamedyarov will be leaving for Baku soon.
