/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Along with US and Russia, France is a co-chair
country of the OSCE Minsk Group for settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict, French Ambassador to Armenia Henry Cuny stated in an
interview with PanARMENIAN.Net. In his words, after the Rambouillet
meeting along with the US and Russian partners France increased
contacts between Yerevan and Baku to arrange a new meeting of the
two Presidents, scheduled in early June.
"This is why representatives of MFA of third countries visited Yerevan
and Baku along with the co-chairs.
Along with Washington and Moscow, we hope for decisive progress and the
two Presidents will have to complete the work of the mediators, done
within latest two years. The moment is very favorable for a settlement
now, taking into account that there are no elections either in Armenia
or Azerbaijan and we will hardly have a chance soon," he remarked.
The diplomat noted that in case an agreement is reached, they will
provide wide political support and the necessary financial assistance
to both parties of the conflict within a shortest possible period.
