We continue talks with Armenia, as we expect them to bear fruit, Azeri President Ilham Aliyev stated today when commenting on the Karabakh settlement. I will be the first to withdraw the talks, if I feel there is no perspective, he noted. Having emphasized the confidentiality of the negotiations, the Azeri President reported "certain topics" were discussed them, however no concrete agreements were made.
