    DATE MAY BE AGREED FOR N.-KARABAKH SUMMIT - MEDIATOR

    The presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan could hold their next meeting
    within the next few months, said Bernard Fassier, French co-chairman
    of the Minsk Group, an Organization for Security and Cooperation in
    Europe (OSCE) body mediating in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    Fassier told a news conference in Yerevan that he and the other co-
    chairmen, who represent Russia and the United States, would visit
    Baku on Tuesday to negotiate the date for such a meeting.

    Fassier hailed a recent meeting in Zurich, Switzerland, between the
    Armenian and Azeri presidents but deplored documents on the Nagorno-
    Karabakh problems that Azerbaijan has disseminated at the United
    Nations.

    The Group's American co-chairman, Matthew Bryza, insisted that a
    solution to the problem be based on the principles of non-use of force,
    territorial integrity and self-determination.

    The co-chairmen rejected the idea of a military solution to the
    conflict.
