Yerevan not expecting breakthrough at Armenian, Azerbaijani foreign ministers' meeting
YEREVAN. Aug 18 (Interfax) - Armenia's ruling Republican Party has said it has no high hopes for an upcoming meeting between the Armenian and Azerbaijani foreign ministers in New York.
"There are no high hopes because Azerbaijan's policy is not showing any positive tendencies," Eduard Sharmazanov, Republican Party spokesman and deputy chairman of the Armenian parliament, told reporters after a meeting of the party's supreme body on Thursday evening.
At the upcoming meeting the Armenian side will insist on the need to implement the agreements reached between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Vienna and St. Petersburg, he said.
"It is difficult to expect any positive headway in this process without introducing mechanisms of trust," Sharmazanov said.
Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov are expected to meet in New York in the second half of September.
