    We are satisfied with Armenia's involvement in [the EU's] European
    Neighbourhood Policy and are ready to begin joint work with the
    European side within the framework of the Individual Partnership
    Action Plan, Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan said today at a
    meeting with the special representative of the EU for the South
    Caucasus, Heikki Talvitie.

    The Armenian presidential press service has told Arminfo that the two
    men discussed Armenia's relations with the European Union and with
    Turkey, as well as a settlement to the Karabakh conflict. Speaking
    about relations with the EU, they noted the importance of the
    forthcoming visit to Armenia by Janez Potochnik, an official in charge
    of EU enlargement. During the visit, the sides will consider prospects
    for bilateral cooperation.

    Oskanyan spoke about the results of the Armenian-Azerbaijani-Turkish
    trilateral meetings in Istanbul within the framework of the NATO
    summit. Discussing the settlement of the Karabakh conflict, they noted
    the need to organize more confidence-building meetings.

    The minister also noted the significance of other programmes of
    regional cooperation for the development of the South Caucasus.

    For his part, Talvitie spoke about the results of his visit to
    Nagornyy Karabakh on 29 June. He also met the [Armenian] deputy
    foreign minister, Ruben Shugaryan, today.
