"I have great hopes that by the end of the year the Karabakh conflict
will be resolved," President of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly Goran
Lenmarker said in Baku.

He noted that it is necessary to find a rapid reconciliation between
Azerbaijan and Armenia. "I think that agreement between the two
countries can be reached between the two countries after the
parliamentary elections in Armenia."

In his opinion, now the Foreign Ministers of the two countries should
solve issues connected with joint residence of people in Nagorno
Karabakh. "It should be taken into consideration that Azerbaijan and
Armenia are neighbors. I think both parties understand the importance
of coming to an agreement," said Lenmarker.
