â€œWe think that as the continuation of the dialogue lasting for years, the process that has started around Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorno Karabakh conflict will be discussed during the meeting,â€ he said.
According to Hasanov, there has always been a hope that every meeting will have positive outcomes, Armenia will give up its non-constructive position.
â€œWe have always hoped that the ways of solution to this problem will be found, progress will be observed in the process. But everything does not depend on us, there is the position of the opposite side, attitude of the world community towards the issue. Anyway, we are expecting certain results from this meeting,â€ he said.

To APAâ€™s question â€œIs Russia making enough efforts for the solution to Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict?â€, Ali Hasanov said Russia, US and France were making more efforts within the recent two years.
â€œSome efforts are observed, but serious pressure on Armenia is not observed yet. Without pressure it is difficult to make Armenia and its leadership give up non-constructive position,â€ he said.
