YEREVAN. – At this time, there are no chances for organizing a meeting between the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan. 

Ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) MP Artak Zakaryan, who is also Chairman of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Foreign Relations, stated the aforesaid at a press conference on Friday.

In his words, a meeting between the two presidents will be possible solely when the respective agenda is agreed upon.

“At this moment, there is no such possibility in a foreseeable future, “ noted Zakaryan. “But, naturally, negotiations [to resolve the Karabakh conflict] also mean meetings.”

Ambassador James Warlick, US Co-Chair of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Minsk Group, had expressed the hope that the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan would meet in the near future.
