Armenian Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure Gnel Sanosyan believes the public should not shun demarcation and delimitation of the border with Azerbaijan, maintaining, however, that "it may be painful one or two times."

Sanosyan told reporters on Tuesday, November 2 that the situation is painful, but stressed the importance of demarcation in order to avoid border incidents. When choosing maps for the process, he said, the sides must take into account the legal status of documents being used.

The Minister also weighed in on a reported summit of Armenian and Azerbaijani leader set to take place in Moscow and claimed he has no knowledge of possible new documents to be signed in the Russian capital

RIA Novosti reported earlier a trilateral meeting of the leaders of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan – Vladimir Putin, Nikol Pashinyan and Ilham Aliyev – may take place in Moscow by November 10. After negotiations, trilateral statements could allegedly be signed.
