/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Yuri Merzlyakov, the Russian Co-chair OSCE Minsk
Group, disagrees with the opinion of his American counterpart Matthew
Bryza concerning the fact that the key elements on the Nagorno
Karabakh settlement had been agreed less technical details. `I can’t
call them technical ones,’ said Mr Merzlyakov. According to him, the
previous commentary by Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov
on 1-2 substantial issues that need final coordination is more
correct.
The Russian mediator said that the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs are
planning to organize regular meeting of the Foreign Ministers of
Armenia and Azerbaijan in early March 2007. `We are focused on the
issue. However, there has not been a final agreement yet. We want to
schedule it not later than March, 2007,’ said Mr Merzlyakov. At the
same time, he considers that the consultations of all the three
Co-chairs expected in Paris next week is unlikely to take place.
Speaking about the fact that the OSCE U.S. Co-chair, who is also
occupied with oil and gas issues in the Caspian region, would
participate in the Paris Energy Conference, Yuri Merzlyakov did not
rule out that Mr Bryza would meet his French counterpart, Bernard
Fassier, reports Trend.
