Contradiction

The RA president’s press secretary Victor Soghomonyan said that the results of the negotiations of the Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents may be considered both effective and ineffective. It was effective because the negotiations will continue. It was ineffective in that no concrete agreement was reached.

Azerbaijani journalists spread rumors that RA President Robert Kocharyan had unexpectedly ceased the negotiations and returned to Armenia. Mr. Soghomonyand denied these rumors and added that the negotiations are still in progress.
