"At this stage, the parties and the co-chairs have not discussed the possibility and timing of meetings at the highest level," said Akopian.

This will be a good opportunity to continue discussions on the Russian approach to the resolution and to consider the prospects of the negotiation process, "the main part of which, of course, is the realization of the right of Nagorno Karabakh people to self-determination," said Akopian.
