US co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Matthew Bryza again announced
that Azerbaijani journalists distort his words.

In particular, during his visit to the so-called "NKR" after the
meeting with head of separatist regime Bako Saakyan, he refuted his
announcement that "Nagorno Karabakh must be returned to Azerbaijan".

"Journalists in Azerbaijan are too "creative", someone wants to use
my words in favor of any party. I said that if there is a contract,
it must be balanced and reflect interests of both Azerbaijan and
Armenia. Yes, we hope that forces will be withdrawn, but there must
be a corridor…

All international principles and norms, reflected in the declaration,
must be included into the agreement. These implies most elements. Thus,
you can ask Azerbaijani journalists, why they refer only to one or
two principles", said the US diplomat.

The US co-chair of the Minsk Group noted that there can not be an
agreement without the agreement of Nagorno Karabakh people. "We arrive
here to hear the opinion of the Karabakh leaders. It is necessary to
strengthen trust step by step. This is a serious work and it would
be an important direction for us. People must not die because of
tensions", said Matthew Bryza, noting that the level of trust between
the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan has grown seriously.

"And this is the first step to solving the differences. It does not
mean that there will be a great progress tomorrow, but we must be
patient and work", said Matthew Bryza.

It should be reminded that on Saturday, OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs
Matthew Bryza (USA), Yuri Merzlyakov (Russia) and Bernard Fassier
(France) visited the self-declared "Nagorno Karabakh". Earlier they
had visited Yerevan.
