"I support Kocharian-Aliyev face-to-face meetings as they create a certain kind of frankness", said Armenian ex-president Levon Ter-Petrosian in the interview to French "l'Express" weekly, published by Yerevan "Azg" paper today."They have to find a solution to the Karabakh conflict. However, the two presidents have already met more than ten times without achieving any result, which may depreciate the process.
