The OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs issued the following statement today:

"On January 20, the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs (Ambassador Yuri
Merzlyakov, the Russian Federation; Ambassador Bernard Fassier,
France; Ambassador Robert Bradtke, United States) met with Armenian
President Serzh Sargsian in Yerevan, Armenia. As instructed by
their presidents in L’Aquila in July 2009, the Co-Chairs delivered
to President Sargsian, just as they had to President Ilham Aliyev
during their visit to Baku in December 2009, an updated version
of the Madrid Document of November 2007, containing the Co-Chairs’
latest articulation of the Basic Principles.

On January 21, the Co-Chairs met President Aliyev in Baku, Azerbaijan.

In their discussions with the Co-Chairs, each president expressed
their commitment to continue to pursue a peaceful settlement to the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and reaffirmed the seriousness of their
side in the negotiations.

The Co-Chairs traveled to Astana, Kazakhstan for consultations with
the Government of Kazakhstan, upon its ascension to the Chairmanship of
the OSCE. Following their consultations in Astana, they will continue
on to Sochi, Russia, where Russian President Dmitry Medvedev will host
the next meeting between the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia."

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
