/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Meetings with authorities of Nagorno Karabakh must
be continued and deepened," OSCE Minsk Group French Co-Chair Bernard
Fassier stated to a press conference in Yerevan. He said, The OSCE
MG has no guilt in the fact that representatives of Nagorno Karabakh
do not participate in talks. "But when we begin talks over status,
presence of Nagorno Karabakh will be necessary, it will be impossible
to settle this issue without Nagorno Karabakh," Fassier stressed.
Alongside he noted that he does not refer to details of talks between
Armenia and leadership of Nagorno Karabakh. "We know the stance of
Arkadi Ghukassian, as well as he knows our stance. Participation
of Karabakh side in the negotiations is not excluded, and sooner it
happens better it will be for the whole process, Bernard Fassier said.
