Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan will meet the co-chairmen of
the OSCE Minsk Group in Krakow on 14 May, Oskanyan told journalists
today.

He stressed that during the meeting with the co-chairmen, he would
discuss a range of issues pertaining to the peaceful settlement of the
Nagornyy Karabakh conflict, from Nagornyy Karabakh’s status to
security issues. Oskanyan also said that he was not scheduled to meet
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov in Poland.

As for a possible meeting of the Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents,

Europe summit in Warsaw [16-17 May], Oskanyan said that no document
was planed to be signed during the meeting.

“The co-chairmen have not submitted to the presidents of the two

of the Karabakh conflict have not reached a stage where a document can
be submitted to the presidents for signing,” Oskanyan said.
