Syria and all Arab countries are interested in NKR conflict settlement, Syrian President Bashar al-Asad said today in Yerevan, during the meeting with RA President Serzh Sargsyan. Near East countries know the price for peace very well, Syrian official said. "Delays in negotiation process have never produced desired results, and we all are well aware of it. Next month, I'll pay a visit to Azerbaijan, and touch upon Karabakh issue during the meeting with President Aliyev. Conflict settlement should be achieved based on all parties' opinions," al-Asad stressed.

President Sargsyan noted in his turn that their negotiations had focused on regional and international problems, as well as Armenian-Syrian cooperation within international organizations.
