    MINISTERS OF ARMENIA, AZERBAIJAN DISCUSS KARABAKH IN PRAGUE

    Czech News Agency
    August 30, 2004

    PRAGUE, Aug 30 (CTK) - Various aspects of the process of a peaceful
    solution to the Armenian-Azeri dispute over the province of
    Nagorno-Karabakh were discussed by the foreign ministers of Armenia
    and Azerbaijan, Vardan Oskanyan and Elmar Mamedyarov, in Prague today.

    The talks, which had been mediated by the Organisation for Security
    and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), were also attended by members
    of the OSCE Minsk group from Russia, France and the United States,
    the Russian RIA Novosti agency said.

    Only snippets of information about the results of the meeting have
    been provided. According to available reports, the talks did not have
    a precise programme.

    The negotiating sides exchanged views on various aspects of the
    solutions to the problems in Nagorno-Karabakh, where national disputes
    persists.

    In the Soviet times, Karabakh, a territory populated by Christian
    ethnic Armenians, was assigned to mainly Muslim, Turkic-speaking
    Azerbaijan.

    The Prague meeting was the fourth meeting between Oskanyan and
    Mamedyarov. The previous talks were held in June, also in Prague.

    CTK failed to find out whether the Czech side joined the debate and
    how. The Czech Foreign Ministry spokesman had no information about
    the meeting.
