    Baku Today 07/04/2004 12:43

    US government will be replacing the US chairman to the OSCE's Minsk
    group, said US Ambassador in Azerbaijan Reno Harnish at a meeting
    with Azeri defense minister Safar Abiyev yesterday.
    US State Secretary's senior adviser for the Caspian basin issues
    Steven Mann will take over the chairman's post. Mann will succeed
    Rudolph Perini who has been the third US chairman of the Minsk group.

    Linn Pasko and Kerry Kavano have been the preceding chairmen of the
    group.

    OSCE's Minsk group has been functioning to facilitate a peaceful
    solution to the Karabakh conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

    Three nations are currently presiding over the group to coordinate
    the mediation efforts. Alongside with the United States Russia and
    France are the chairmen of the group.

    The three nations have been operating in joint chairmanship since
    February 11, 1997.
