"OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs anticipate normal work from the upcoming
meeting of Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan Vardan
Oskanyan and Elmar Mamedyarov," OSCE Minsk Group Russian Co-Chair
Yuri Merzlyakov told "Arminfo" correspondent.
To remind, the Co-Chairs are scheduled to meet the Foreign Ministers
in Strasburg in the framework of the Council of Europe Council of
Foreign Ministers.
According to Yuri Merzlyakov, the meetings will start on May 18 and
may probably continue on May 19. As for the format of the meetings,
the Russian mediator noted that separate meetings with the two Foreign
Ministers are envisaged. The Co-Chairs, however, will try to arrange
a joint meeting.
In response to the question about the positive or negative outcome
anticipated from the meeting of the Foreign Ministers, Merzlyakov
mentioned that the level of the meeting of Ministers should not be
equated to that of Presidents.
Answering the question whether the meeting of the Ministers will
prepare ground for the meeting of Presidents, Merzlyakov said, "I
think it is inevitable that it supports the meeting of the leaders,
but never replaces."
