Kremlin officials say Russian President Dmitri Medvedev will join the talks Saturday.
A Russian spokesman says there are no plans for Armenia's Serzh Sarkisyan and Azebaijan's Ilham Aliyev to sign a peace deal in Moscow. He said the talks are aimed at getting both sides closer together.
Nagorno-KarabaThe presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan met in Moscow Friday for talks on efforts to ease the kh declared independence from Azerbaijan in 1988. The six-year conflict that followed left about 35,000 people dead.
A 1994 cease-fire stopped the major fighting, but skirmishes occasionally erupt.
At the summit of the Group of Eight industrialized nations last week, Russia, France and the United States issued a statement calling on the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan to settle their dispute.
They vowed to continue supporting the peace talks.
