YEREVAN, JUNE 7, NOYAN TAPAN. "I don’t expect the current stage of
negotiations to be a turning-point, there are still disagreements
and a great deal has to be done," the U.S. co-chair of the OSCE Minsk
Group Matthew Bryza said at the June 7 press conference.

As regards his optimistic statements about the Karabakh settlement,
the U.S. diplomat noted that his optimistic statements have mainly
to do with that the fact that he is an optimist by nature.

The Russian co-chair Yuri Merzlyakov stated that his partners and he
have come to the region only with the aim of preparing the meeting
of the presidents in Saint Petersburg. "We have presented the issues
to be discussed in two days in Saint Petersburg to the presidents of
the two countries," he said.

The French co-chair Bernard Fassier said that "there will be a
breakthrough in negotiations when the presidents of the two countries
have enough trust in each other."
