No sign of negotiations in Armenian standoff
Armenia’s main opposition group and the government are unlikely to start negotiations soon to end a standoff which triggered rioting that killed eight people,a European envoy said on Monday after he met both parties.
“In all likeliness this kind of dialogue between Ter-Petrosyan and the government at the moment is not possible,” Heikki Talvitie, a special envoy for the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), told reporters after being asked if the two sides would start negotiations. “But let’s not exclude it from the future,” he added.
