The member of Armenian National Congress (ANC), former Prime Minister Hrant Bagratyan shared his expectations for the Armenia-Russia-Azerbaijan presidential meeting on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement.

As Bagratyan told a news conference in Yerevan, “currently Armenia is demanded to make unilateral concessions, rather than bilateral ones. A second concession will follow the first one, and so on.”

“Possibly, neither Serzh Sargsyan nor Ilham Aliyev are aware of Karabakh conflict settlement plan to be suggested,” he remarked.

The Presidents Serzh Sargsyan, Ilham Aliyev and Dmitry Medvedev are slated to meet on June 25 in the Russian city of Kazan, the next in a series of trilateral meetings on the Karabakh conflict settlement.

There are certain expectations with respect to the meeting, taking into consideration the Deauville statement adopted by the leaders of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chair countries, who said “the time has arrived for all the sides to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict to take a decisive step towards a peaceful settlement. Further delay [in the settlement] would only call into question the commitment of the sides to reach an agreement.”
