The Minister said that Armenia is ready for a presidential meeting during NATO summit in Bucharest on April 3-4. "Serzh Sargsyan has agreed to meet. The matter depends on the Azeri President. At that the agenda will include the resolution on Karabakh adopted by the UN General Assembly on March 14."
