/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The Nagorno Karabakh conflict is unique in its
nature and it is the only conflict, where interests of Russia, the
United States and OSCE do not contradict each other, Russian Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov stated to a joint press conference with RA
Acting Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian in Yerevan.
He said the OSCE Mink Group has worked out such a document for settling
the conflict that a lot of other conflicting countries would envy. "I
hope exactly this uniqueness will help Baku and Yerevan to reach a
new level of settlement. Authorities of Armenia and Azerbaijan must
make final decision, but mediator countries, including Russia, will
be guarantees of commitments reached during the negotiation process,"
Sergey Lavrov underscored.
In his part RA Acting Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian said still
there is no agreement on principal issues of the settlement. "Exactly
principles of settlement become a stumbling block. At the coming April
meeting with Azeri FM talks over these issues will be continued, which
will allow the Co-Chairs to begin preparation works for a meeting
between Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan after parliamentarian
elections in Armenia," Vartan Oskanian said.
