Head of OSCE Yerevan Office Sergey Kapinos thinks it’s less likely
that the Minsk Group format may change.

"In fact, the most dangerous thing is changing the established format.

Those [changes in an established format] are unexpected turns in the
negotiating process," said Kapinos in response to a question about
a possible change in the format of the Minsk Group.

Kapinos recalled that the Minsk Group’s present format is a rather
balanced one and seems to be optimal.

"Three world players are presented [in the group]: Russia, France,
on behalf of the EU, and the US," said Kapinos.
