/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The change of the U.S. Co-chair of the OSCE Minsk
Group for the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement will not have any
impact on the positions on the co-chair states on the issue, member
of ARF Dashnaktsutyun faction, chairman of the standing parliamentary
committee for foreign relations Armen Rustamian stated in Yerevan
yesterday. "I do not think it will have any impact. The Co-chairs
changed many times but the rotation caused not consequences,"
he underscored

In his words, the OSCE MG is the most admissible and optimal format
for the settlement in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict despite the fact
that no considerable progress has been fixed so far. "However it's
not the fault of the mediators. They have carried out a great deal
of work and familiarized with the situation. One must not refuse from
this format and seek for a new one," he said, reported Novosti-Armenia.

To note, Matthew J. Bryza was appointed new U.S. Co-chair of the OSCE
Minsk Group on June 15.
