/PanARMENIAN.Net/ OSCE Minsk Group Russian Co-chair, Ambassador Yuri
Merzlyakov supposes it’s too early to speak of Karabakh’s participation
in the talks.

"After the base principles are approved, representatives of the
region can join elaboration of an agreement on Karabakh," he said,
Trend Azeri news agency reports.

Earlier, NKR President Bako Sahakian said that Nagorno Karabakh should
hold talks immediately with Karabakh.

"There is a main party to conflict, the Nagorno Karabakh republic,
with priorities like in other foreign states," President Sahakian said.
