    US TO RESUME PEACE EFFORTS ON NAGORNO-KARABAKH CONFLICT

    Baku, Azerbaijan, April 2
    By Sabina Ahmadova - Trend:

    U.S. co-chair of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in
    Europe Minsk Group will meet with the foreign ministers of Azerbaijan
    and Armenia on April 4, James Warlick wrote on his Twitter page
    April 2.

    Warlick noted that he is leaving for consultations at OSCE headquarters
    in Vienna. Then he plans to arrive in Moscow for April 4 meetings
    with the foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan.

    This is the original Twitter post: "Leaving today for consultations
    at @OSCE in #Vienna. Then to #Moscow for Friday meetings with the
    FMs of #Armenia and #Azerbaijan. #NKpeace"

    The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
    armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.

    Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
    co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the U.S. are
    currently holding peace negotiations.

    Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
    resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    surrounding regions.
