/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian did not rule out the
possibility of a Kocharian-Aliyev meeting, noting that much depend on
the outcomes of the meeting of Armenian and Azeri FMs and mediator’s
coming visit to the region.

Oskanian said the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs are scheduled to visit the
region in late May. The Armenian FM said the mediators have presented
some new ideas to parties to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and these
will be discussed at his meeting with Azeri FM Elmar Mammadyarov
in Strasbourg this week within the session of the Council of Europe
Committee of Ministers.

Any proposals have both positive and negative sides and all disputed
issues should be solved in the course of talks. We will try to make
our stands maximally close,” the Armenian FM said, noting that much
will depend on the response of the Azeri party to the new proposals
of the mediators, Mediamax reports.
