    OSKANIAN MAMEDYAROV MEETING

    Azat Artsakh - Nagorno Karabakh Republic [NKR]
    28 June  05

    The meeting of the foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan V.
    Oskanian and E. Mamedyarov took place; however, according to the
    representative of the Armenian party, they did not come to a conclusion
    over the issue under consideration. Nevertheless, they found a common
    approach to certain issues. The minister of foreign affairs of Armenia
    Vardan Oskanian summed up the results of his official visits lasting
    from June 8 to 17. The meetings related to the Nagorno Karabakh
    issue in the framework of the official visits of the minister were
    in the centre of attention. According to the minister, two important
    meetings on this issue took place. On June 8 Minister Vardan Oskanian
    met with the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs in Vienna. They discussed a
    series of issues related to the resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh
    conflict, which emanate from the approaches of the Warsaw meeting
    of the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan, as well as certain
    details on the upcoming meeting in Paris were clarified. However,
    the second meeting of Oskanian and Mamedyarov in Paris was of more
    public importance. In this reference V. Oskanian only said that during
    the talks they dwelled upon the findings of the Warsaw meeting of the
    presidents. Evaluating the talks as effective, the minister mentioned
    that this time no definite arrangements were achieved either, but
    they agreed to continue the negotiations. .There are the directives
    of the presidents, the principles are clear-cut, but when one goes
    into details, each wants to make these more acceptable and favourable
    for themselves. Therefore we continue to argue; we did not come to a
    final conclusion in Paris but we were able to find a common approach
    to certain issues. If they make a small concession and we make a small
    concession, it will be possible to come to a conclusion,. said the
    minister. However, according to the diplomats, this will happen only
    in the future negotiations. Avoiding comments on the details of the
    meeting, the minister mentioned once again that they had managed to
    come to a common approach to if not all at least some issues but he
    did not want to say which issues exactly. He only said that all the
    elements of the portfolio, such as the status of NK and the refugees,
    security issues, are discussed in the talks. However, for Armenia
    the priority is the political status of Nagorno Karabakh. .Unless
    we get a clear answer to this question, I consider it pointless to
    speak about or discuss any other issue,. said the minister of foreign
    affairs of Armenia.
