The former and current U.S. co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group have
discussed the ways to resolve the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict.
Carey Cavanaugh and Robert Bradtke, former U.S co-chairs of the OSCE
Minsk Group discussed the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with James Warlick,
the current U.S. co-chairman, Warlick wrote on his Twitter page.
The United States is one of the co-chair countries of the OSCE Minsk
Group, which tasked to resolve the long-lasting Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict.
The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict emerged in 1988 when Armenia made
territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Since a lengthy war in the early
1990s that displaced over one million Azerbaijanis, Armenian armed
forces have occupied over 20 percent of Azerbaijan's internationally
recognized territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent
regions.
Peace talks, mediated by Russia, France and the U.S. through the OSCE
Minsk Group, are underway on the basis of a peace outline proposed by
the Minsk Group co-chairs and dubbed the Madrid Principles. However,
the negotiations have been largely fruitless so far despite the
efforts of the co-chair countries over 20 years.
Armenia continues the occupation in defiance of four UN Security
Council resolutions calling for immediate and unconditional withdrawal.
