YEREVAN, JULY 24, ARMENPRESS: The Minsk Group Co-Chairs are meeting
July 25-26 in Krakow for intensive consultations in response to the
directives of Presidents Obama, Sarkozy, and Medvedev in their July
10 statement for the Co-Chairs to update the Madrid Document, which
outlines our Basic Principles of a Nagorno Karabakh settlement.
The OSCE American co-chairman Matthew Bryza told Armenpress that the
foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan will not participate in
this meeting.
As to the terms of duty of the American Co-Chair at the Minsk Group,
Bryza noted that no decisions have been made on when he will finish
his duties as Minsk Group Co-Chair.
"I am thrilled to have been kept on so far into President Obama’s
administration, but, at some point, will need to rotate to a new
position. This is our way of life in the Foreign Service," he stressed.
