Baku. Viktoria Dementieva – APA. "Whether the Presidents of Armenia
and Azerbaijan decide to meet in July will depend on how much progress
the Co-Chairs can make in coming weeks, working in close cooperation
with the foreign ministers of both countries", American Co-Chair of
the OSCE Minsk Group Matthew Bryza exclusively told APA.

Whilst commenting on the meeting of Presidents Aliyev and Sargsian on

positive: "The mood between the two leaders was constructive. The
Co-Chairs are pleased by the progress the presidents made, and are
