Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian met with Nagorno Karabakh President Bako Sahakian and Armenia’s Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian on Monday.

STEPANAKERT (RFE/RL)—President Serzh Sarkisian flew to Nagorno-Karabakh on Monday more than two weeks after the outbreak of heavy fighting around the territory that nearly escalated into a full-scale Armenian-Azerbaijani war.

The Armenian presidential press office released photographs of a uniform-clad Sarkisian arriving at the Stepanakert airport by helicopter and being greeted there by Bako Sahakian, the Karabakh president, and Armenia’s Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian. It gave no details of the “working visit.â€
