The American co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Stephen Mann told Radio
Liberty that the Minsk Group is eager for reaching a peace settlement
of the conflict over Karabakh in any form, but in the long run it
depends on the conflict parties. According to him, in the meeting of
the co-chairs, where Yuri Merzlyakov did not appear because of health
problems, and was replaced by another diplomat, Mann informed the
French and Russian diplomats about his meeting in Baku and Yerevan. He
pointed out the drawbacks of temporizing and the importance of
reaching an agreement in 2006. He denied the viewpoint that the OSCE
is an ineffective format. He said the OSCE is the best format for the
peace settlement. He thinks that the settlement depends on the
conflict parties rather than the mediators. He also mentioned that
there are no arrangements on meetings of ministers of Armenia and
Azerbaijan yet.
