ArmInfo. Deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia Shavarsh Kocharyan responded to the statement of Novruz Mammadov, the Azerbaijani presidential aide on foreign policy  issues, who after the Geneva meeting accused Sargsyan, the head  of the Armenian  state,  in an attempt to "disrupt the agreement reached during the talks."

"Against the backdrop of the comments of the President of the  Republic of Armenia, following the meeting in Geneva reflecting the  cave thinking of Novruz Mammadov, the remarks of the diplomatic  correctness in relation to the President of Azerbaijan are another  proof of what exactly impedes the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh  problem," Shavarsh Kocharyan wrote in his microblogging on Twitter.

Spokesman for the Armenian Foreign Ministry Tigran Balayan also  commented on Novruz Mammadov's statement. "The Baku nomenclator with  the expired validity period again missed the opportunity to remain  silent and not to show off all its limitations," wrote Balayan in the  social network Twitter.

It should be noted that the Sargsyan-Aliyev meeting was held in  Geneva on October 16.  The meeting was attended by the Foreign  Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan Edward Nalbandian and Elmar  Mammadyarov, Minsk mediators Igor Popov (Russia), AndrewSheffer  (USA), Stefan Visconti (France) and Personal Representative The OSCE  Chairman-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk. On the same day in Geneva, at  the Armenian Embassy in the Swiss Confederation, President Serzh  Sargsyan met with representatives of the Armenian community and  presented the results of the talks held on the same day with  Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.   

"A few minutes ago the meeting with the President of Azerbaijan  ended: there are no concrete agreements, so to speak, we do not have,  as to the options for solving the problem, but we agreed to take  measures to further ease the tension so that we do not have any  victims on the front line. and I am deeply interested in it, God  grant that he always thought so, he also understands the complexity  of the problem, naturally, I am also, but this is a question that  will never have a simple solution. I want you all to be sure that for  us there can not be a solution that can in any way violate the  security of Karabakh.The only solution for us is that Karabakh was  outside of Azerbaijan.Never one Armenian leader can not accept and  implement such a solution, and for this purpose we will do  everything, while at the same time ensuring the development of  Armenia, economically strengthening our country, "President Sargsyan  said.

Meanwhile, the assistant to the Azerbaijani President on foreign  policy issues, Novruz Mammadov wrote on his Twitter page: "It was  decided that besides the agreed points, there will be no other  statements." Despite the promise, he (Serzh Sargsyan) again did not  keep his word: Apparently, the intention to derail the negotiations  is still with him. "
