There is still no framework agreement at peaceful conversations on
the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, reportedly said Yuri
Merzlyakov, Russian co-chairman of OSCE Minsk Group, in his exclusive
interview to Trend.
Merzlyakov said arbitrators offered the parties to coordinate the
problem settlement principles prior to developing the agreement on
their basis; besides, co-chairmen do not use in conversation process
such terms as "stage-by-stage", "package", "universal" and so on.
The further state of the conversation process, Russian diplomat went
on, will get defined after the first visit of Matthew Bryza as US
co-chairman of OSCE Minsk Group to the region.
"At the moment I am just not ready to state the situation. It will
get clear when he comes there and listen to the parties' opinions",
he added. Merzlyakov added that Bryza's visit to the region had been
originally scheduled to later July or early September.
Answering the question about the preparation to the next meeting
between foreign ministers of presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan,
Merzlyakov said: "The co-chairmen's last statement says the parties
shall put forward their initiative".
