(Armenia Now) The meeting between President Serzh Sargsyan of Armenia and President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan held with international mediation was, in general, positively received by the Armenian side, but experts and politicians also general expect no significant changes in the process as a result of that.
The two South Caucasus countries’ leaders met in Vienna on Monday evening. During the meeting, the parties discussed tensions created as a result of the escalation in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict zone at the beginning of April, and the possible ways to get out of that situation. […]
According to political analyst Sergey Minasyan, the meeting was broadly consistent with the purposes for which it was arranged.
“They have possibly been silent on President Sargsyan’s demand related to statements directed to the initiator of the aggression, but we should take into consideration that diplomatic processes sometimes require a milder reaction. I think that a frank discussion took place during this meeting, and, in this respect, it can be treated with cautious optimism,” the political analyst told Armenia Now.
