Moscow hosted a meeting of foreign ministers of Azerbaijan Elmar Mammadyarov, Russia Sergei Lavrov and Armenia Edward Nalbaldyan, the head of the press center of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry Elkhan Polukhov told Trend.
The sides discussed the issue of resolving the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
