The reporters reminded the director of the OSCE Yerevan office Sergey
Kapinos hosted at the Hayatsk press club on October 24 about Serge
Sargsyan’s recent statement about the "Madrid principles" of settlement
of the Karabakh conflict, and asked whether the principles offered by
the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs are available on the OSCE’s website,
as Serge Sargsyan had hinted.

Earlier during the news conference with the Russian president
Medvedev Serge Sargsyan had said anyone can get acquainted with the
"principles of Madrid" on the web because this document is in the
depository of one of the international organizations. Although Serge
Sargsyan did not mention the name of the organization, logically it
should be the OSCE because the document was worked out by the OSCE
Minsk Group co-chairs and presented during the OSCE summit. Therefore,
the reporters asked this question to the director of the OSCE Yerevan
office Sergey Kapinos. He gave a diplomatic answer, noting that he
would not like to comment on Serge Sargsyan’s statement and added
that he has his own diplomatic sources, and he does not track the
Karabakh issue on the web.
