Лавров: "Пора!"

Ходят слухи, что Россия готовит новую инициативу по Карабаху, в то время как министр иностранных дел Азербайджана посещает Москву уже во второй раз за последние месяцы. Мамедъяров провел встречу с министром иностранных дел России Сергеем Лавровым. После встречи Лавров сообщил журналистам, что пора активизировать переговоры по урегулированию нагорно-карабахского конфликта. Однако, Лавров поспешил добавить, что Россия тесно сотрудничает в этом вопросе с двумя другими сопредседателями МГ ОБСЕ, с США и Францией.

Российские СМИ также сообщили, что после встречи с Мамедъяровым, Лавров также обсудил карабахскую проблему в телефонном разговоре с министром иностранных дел Армении Эдвардом Налбандяном.

Сопредседатель Минского процесса ОБСЕ были в Москве на этой неделе для консультаций с Правительством Российской Федерации, в том числе с заместителем главы МИД РФ Карасиным.

Россия заняла ведущую роль в переговорах по Карабаху в 2008 году во главе с бывшим президентом России Дмитрием Медведевым, который провел несколько встреч с президентами Армении и Азербайджана. Однако, его инициатива провалилась в Казани в 2011 году, и с тех пор встречи двух президентов проходили нерегулярно.

Azerbaijani members of thematic groups for dialogue with Armenians briefed, as work on five final reports continues in earnest

On Friday, (26 September) there was another amazing event in the process of Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue, this time in Baku. Around twenty five Azerbaijanis involved in five thematic groups established by LINKS Europe earlier this year were briefed by Murad Muradov, co-Chair of the thematic group on Peace and Security; Liman Namazova, Chair of the thematic group on Environment; Lala Jumayeva, Chair of the thematic group on gender and diversity; Nigar Gurbanli, Deputy Chair of the thematic group on regional connectivity; and Ramazan Samadov, Deputy Chair of the thematic group on Governance, on the work done so-far. Murad Muradov spoke about his visit to Yerevan earlier in the week, and his speech to Armenian thematic group members. He said the momentum for peace, dialogue and regional co-operation was stronger than ever before. Ambassadors and other representatives of EU member states and others, as well as representatives of the EU Delegation, the EUSR office and other international institutions were in attendance. In a short speech to the gathering, LINKS Europe Director, Dr Dennis Sammut, said that enemies of peace remained active in both Armenia and Azerbaijan. Many had been warmongers for years, and it was difficult for them to change. However it was important to engage them, and have an open and honest discussion with them. The Azerbaijani members of the thematic groups are eager to meet their Armenian counterparts in person in Tbilisi 27-28 October, when they hope to finish the work on the five reports.
