The Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Ambassadors Yury Merzlyakov of
Russia, Bernard Fassier of France, and Robert Bradtke of the United
States, released the following statement today:
"President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and President of Armenia Serzh
Sargsian met November 22, 2009 at the residence of the French Consul
General in Munich at the initiative of OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs
Ambassador Yuri Merzlyakov (Russian Federation), Ambassador Bernard
Fassier (France), Ambassador Robert Bradtke (United States).
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov and Armenian Foreign
Minister Edward Nalbandian also participated in the talks, as well as
the personal representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Ambassador
Andrzej Kasprzyk.
During this meeting, the sixth such meeting this year, the two
presidents engaged in a detailed and in-depth discussion of the most
important unresolved points in the Co-Chairs’ proposals. The talks,
which lasted almost four hours, were constructive. In some areas,
progress was made. At the same time, some issues still remain open.
The Presidents instructed their foreign ministers to continue working
with the Co-Chairs on these matters. As a next step, the Co-Chairs
are organizing a working session with the two ministers in advance
of the OSCE Ministerial Council, which will take place December 1-2
in Athens."
