Today the OSCE Minsk group Co-Chairs met Armenian journalists. They
came a little later in high spirits. Just at the beginning of the pres
conference the Co-Chairs dispelled the rumours that Armenia will assume
"non transparent" responsibilities under the Moscow Declaration signed
between the Presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia.
"The November 2 meeting gave a new stimulus to the talks. In this
regard, I am very grateful to our Russian partners. The Presidents of
Armenia and Azerbaijan already feel mutual respect and view the talks
in each other's eyes in order to outline their further steps. They have
both confirmed that the conflict should be solved peacefully within
the framework of the Minsk group," said U.S. Co-Chair Metthew Bryza.
Bryza's words could have been taken for granted if Azerbaijan hadn't
violated the cease-fire and opened fire two months later after the
adoption of declaration.
In reply to A1+'s question whether they confide in the Azeri side
which, on the one hand, signs a declaration ensuring a peaceful
settlement for the conflict and, on the other hand, fires a shot,
Metthew Bryza said: "We are much concerned over the military actions
in Fizuli. We hope that the Personal Representative of the OSCE
Chairman-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk will hold a crisis monitoring
there. No serviceman must fall a victim to provocations."
French Co-Chair Bernard Fassier noted that an adoption of declaration
is not enough for the sides to achieve peace.
