Azerbaijan, Baku / Òrend corr A. Ismayilova / It would be shameful if
the longstanding activities of the OSCE Minsk Group turned out to be
fruitless, the US Co-Chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group, Matthew Bryza,
stated in Baku on 2 August.
The diplomat said that the parties have to achieve an agreement before
the presidential elections of 2008 in Azerbaijan. Bryza again stated
that settlement of the conflicts depended on the decisions of the
two Presidents. Bryza added that the visits of the representatives
of Azerbaijani and Armenian intelligentsia to Nagorno-Karabakh should
periodically take place.
"A compromise can be achieved in the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict, and we are approaching that. In order to achieve anything
there is a price to be paid for it by the countries," Bryza noted.
