President Aliyev arrives in Bern
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has today arrived in Bern, Switzerland.
The President will attend a meeting of the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan, which will be held at the initiative of the OSCE Minsk Group, the press service of the head of the Azerbaijani state reported.
For over two decades, Azerbaijan and Armenia have been locked in conflict that emerged over Armenia's territorial claims against its South Caucasus neighbor. Since a war in the early 1990s, the Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven surrounding regions.
The latest meeting between President Aliyev and President Sargsyan took place in France last October.
The Paris talks were expected to bring some breakthrough in the stalled conflict, but Armenia’s provocative actions and intensive ceasefire violations have aggravated the situation even more.
