Specific decisions concerning the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict will be made in the near future, Speaker of the RF State Duma Boris Gryzlov said in Yerevan.

He stressed that clear steps are being made and prerequisites for decisions concerning the settlement are available, he said. It is natural to discuss the NKR’s status during the talks, Gryzlov said. He stressed that the issue of territories controlled by the Armenian side is being discussed as well.

Boris Gryzlov has arrived in Yerevan to participate in a session of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly.
