Karabakh talks to be frozen till Azeri presidential election, Kocharian says

PanARMENIAN.Net - "Ilham Aliyev is open for communication and exchange of views. It's possible to hold talks with him," RA President Robert Kocharian said at a meeting with the students and teaching staff of Yerevan State University.



"During various summits, we sit next to each other owing to the alphabetic order. We have normal relations. I don't think you want Presidents to wrangle or fight," Mr Kocharian remarked.



He also said that President-elect Serzh Sargsyan will use the experience of some international meetings to establish dialogue with Ilham Aliyev. "However, I think that Karabakh talks will be frozen till the Azeri presidential election due in October," the President said.
