/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Nagorno Karabakh authorities have not received
the "technical document" French mediator Bernard Fassier was speaking
about, said Georgy Petrossian, the NKR Foreign Minister.

"However as a party to the conflict, acknowledged as such in accordance
with OSCE basic documents on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, we expect
to get it soon from the Minsk Group Co-chairs," he said.

Earlier, OSCE MG French Co-chair, Ambassador Bernard Fassier said that
Foreign Ministers of Russia, France and the U.S. handed a technical
document, which can speed up the settlement process, to the sides in
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

"First of all, this document should be developed and
studied. Afterwards, it will be either approved or rejected," the
Ambassador said, adding that Armenia and Azerbaijan were offered
a schedule of coordination of the basic principles till the end of
the year.

"The latest meeting in Helsinki was useful. Foreign Ministers of
Armenia and Azerbaijan held 5-hour talks on the Karabakh issue,"
Fassier said.
