    US Hopes for Agreement between Kocharian and Aliyev in Romania

    27.05.2006 13:04 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The hope would be that the Presidents of Azerbaijan
    and Armenia might at that point be able to come to closure on some of
    the issues that divide them within the context of settlement of the
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict, stated Sean McCormack, an official of the
    US Department of State. He was commenting on the result of the visit
    of US Assistant Secretary of State Daniel Fried to the South Caucasus.
    `Fried was to the South Caucasus working with the OSCE Minsk Group
    co-chairs, Russia as well as France, to see if we could find a way
    forward on resolving the Nagorno Karabakh issue between Armenia and
    Azerbaijan,' Sean McCormack said. `I don't have a readout for you as
    to what sort of progress they may have made,' he added.

    ĢI know that the Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia are scheduled to
    get together in Bucharest, Romania, in early June. They made a run at
    it while they were in France. They weren't able to come to agreement,'
    the US official stressed. "We, working with the Minsk Group co-chairs,
    are hopeful that they can come together to resolve whatever
    differences there are. These are tough issues, we know. It's going to
    require tough political decisions on both sides. But we think that at
    the end of the day, taking this tough political decisions will benefit
    all the peoples of the region,' McCormack concluded.
