The American Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Matthew Bryza expressed
hope that the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan will meet again
in a few months, Mediamax reports.
"We must emphasize the great work the Foreign Ministers of Armenia
and Azerbaijan did last year and to praise the Presidents who managed
to make the dialogue move from the dead point," said the American
mediator.
"I don't think elections will hinder the negotiation process. Before
the parliamentary elections in Armenia we worried that that the
negotiation process would be stalled for some time. It did not
happen. Now we are waiting for the presidential elections. Certainly,
any election campaign restricts the framework of political maneuvers,
but there are no grounds to think that the presidential elections in
Armenia will put an end to the negotiation process."
