Armenian and Azeri Presidents likely to meet in DushanbeSeptember 14, 2007 - 13:35 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The regular meeting of Armenian President Robert Kocharian and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev can take place during the CIS summit in Dushanbe in October, RA leader's Spokesman Victor Soghomonyan said when responding to a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter's question."The presidential meeting depends on the outcomes of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs' regional visit. Meeting for no particular reason would make no sense," Soghomonyan said. In the framework of the regional call starting September 15, the Co-chairs are expected to visit Yerevan, Stepanakert and Baku. "This will be a working visit. Nothing new is expected. They will proceed with the work at the document that was elaborated earlier," Mr Soghomonyan said.
