/PanARMENIAN.Net/ OSCE Minsk Group Russian Co-Chair Yuri Merzlyakov
said “the parties are still too far from coming to an agreement over
settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.” In Merzlyakov’s words,
the preparation of the agreement needs months of intense work of both
experts and representatives of parties to conflict. MG French Co-Chair
Bernard Fassier remarked certain progress over settlement principles is
available. At that he added there are many complex aspects the parties
have not come to accord over yet. “We consider the spirit of the talks
and relations between the parties that positively develop are important
and it helps us much,” the French Ambassador said. US mediator Steven
Mann noted “the preparation of the principles is an indispensable phase
for the following preparation of the solution of all technical issues,
working out details and modalities at the level of experts.” In his
words, the new atmosphere and the spirit of openness at the talks
promote determination of future basic principles of the treaty.
