OSCE Parliamentary Assembly President Emeritus Goran Lennmarker will
next week visit all three countries, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia,
in the South Caucasus.

Mr. Lennmarker, a member of the Swedish parliament, is tasked to
work on supporting the conflict settlement process particularly at
the parliamentary level. He was recently appointed Special Envoy
for Georgia by OSCE PA President Joao Soares and is also engaged
in seeking to solve the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenian
regarding Nagorno-Karabakh.

Next week’s visit is Mr. Lennmarker’s first since the appointment as
Special Envoy for Georgia. It starts in Azerbaijan on Monday, moves
on to Georgia in the middle of the week, and finishes up in Armenia
at the end of the week.

The situation in the South Caucasus will be addressed at the
OSCE PA Fall Meetings in Toronto, Canada 18 to 21 September, where
Mr. Lennmarker will present a report about the situation in Georgia,
and where parliamentarians from all OSCE participating States will
have a debate on this issue.
