Baku, May 5, AssA-Irada
Foreign ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia Elmar Mammadyarov and
Vardan Oskanian will hold another meeting to discuss settlement of
the Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh conflict in two weeks, Armenian media
reported.
Oskanian said the meeting will take place at a meeting of the Council
of Europe Ministerial Committee in Strasbourg.
He said the discussions would center on making preparations for a
meeting of the two countries' presidents scheduled for early next
month. He said the precise timeframe and venue for the two leaders'
meeting is not known yet.
The Azeri government has not released any information concerning a
meeting of the two presidents.
The OSCE mediators will visit the region individually, but not as a
group. Commenting on the matter, Oskanian said one should not look
for any political connotation over this, as soon afterwards they will
arrive in the region together.
Oskanian's statement, released by Armenian Mediamax news agency, came
after his meeting with the French co-chair of the mediating OSCE
Minsk Group Bernard Fassier.*
