Russia is ready to do everything in its power to achieve progress in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement talks, the Director of the Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry Andrei Kelin said yesterday.

"We are ready to do everything possible, but progress depends on the will of the parties," Kelin said, commenting on a meeting of Russia and Azerbaijan’s leaders which will be held in Kazan in late June, Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper reported.

"The preparation for the meeting is underway," Kelin was quoted by Russia's Interfax. "While the presidents deal with this, foreign ministers are preparing the relevant documents for them. We also participate in the preparatory work, which is very serious and sensitive."
