"Unfortunately, this year no practical progress was achieved in the
negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan, and correspondingly
these yielded no results," OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Belgian Foreign
Minister Karel de Gucht told "Zerkalo" newspaper.
According to the source, at the same time the OSCE leader reminded
about the upcoming visit of the Azeri President Ilham Aliev to Belgia,
during which ways of resolution of the Karabakh conflict will be
discussed. "This meeting will precede the talks between Foreign
Ministers Oskanian and Mammadyarov scheduled mid-November. As for me,
I have certain suggestions regarding the forthcoming meeting, but I
will not make these public now, since my personal opinion may impact
the development of events. However, I anticipate positive outcome
of the talks and I think that these will be more productive than the
previous ones," Karel de Gucht declared.
