Armenian, Azerbaijani, Russian vice-premiers to meet next week 

ArmInfo. The Russian, Armenian and Azerbaijani vice-premiers will meet in a week, Russian President  Vladimir Putin stated at a meeting with Armenia's Premier Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. 

The sides are expected to discuss and settled the controversial  issues. "I think it is a good arrangement inspiring hope for settling  the unsettled issues," Putin said. 

He expressed gratitude for the sides' prompt response to his proposal  to hold a regular meeting and voiced hope that it will be a good  prerequisite for settling a number of issues. "Much has been done in  this format, and in the autumn of 2020 not only hostilities were  ended, but also work to unblock the transport links and delimit was  launched. Many events have occurred during this period, and I am not  going into details now.  By and large, despite any problems, I think  the situation is progressing toward a settlement. One of the  directions is transport links. And three of us have just had a rather  detailed discussion, and some issues have remained unsettled. I think  these are purely technical issues - and we have talked about it with  our Armenian and Azerbaijani partners. It is a question of terms. Of  course, the terms must imply accurate understanding of reality and  events to follow the signing of relevant documents. And I think, or  rather we think - I means three of us - these obstacles are  surmountable. By and large, they do not really exist. These are  purely technical issues. So we have agreed on holding a meeting in a  week," Putin said.
