Дипломаты Минской Группы встретились с президентом Армении.

Дипломаты от Франции, США и России в понедельник встретились с президентом Армении Сержем Саргсяном в продолжении своего визита в регион, пытаясь сохранить набранные темпы в решении карабахского конфликта.

Визит был омрачен гибелью армянского солдата на линии фронта днем в минувшее воскресенье. Армянская сторона заявила, что это результат снайперского огня открытого со стороны Азербайджана. С азербайджанской стороны никаких комментариев на этот счет не поступало.

Данный вопрос был поднят министром иностранных дел Армении Эдвардом Налбандяном, когда он встретился с дипломатами Минской группы в Ереване.

В настоящее время проводятся консультации для подготовки ко второй встрече президентов Армении и Азербайджана в начале 2014 года. Последняя их встреча, состоявшаяся в ноябре в Вене, была отмечена в качестве позитивного шага вперед со стороны международного сообщества.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States. Relations between China and Russia have deepened in recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
