    MINISTERS CALL ON PARTIES TO COMPLETE THE COORDINATION OF BASIC PRINCIPLES

    Republic of Nagorno Karabakh [NKR]

    The Foreign Ministers of Russia, France and the United States, the
    three co-chairing countries of the OSCE Minsk Group, have called
    on Armenia and Azerbaijan to make efforts towards completing the
    coordination of the basic principles aimed at the settlement of the
    Karabakh conflict.

    During the Helsinki discussions, Sergey Lavrov and Bernard Koushner,
    Foreign Ministers of the MG co-chairing states, as well as US Deputy
    Secretary of State Daniel Fried made a joint statement concerning
    the Karabakh conflict.

    The statement runs as follows, "We call on the parties to unite their
    efforts with the Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group for accomplishing
    the activities towards the coordination of the basic principles of
    conflict settlement and assume them as a basis for the elaboration
    of a comprehensive peace agreement".

    The Ministers called on the conflicting parties to use the constructive
    and positive impulse of the Armenian and Russian Presidents' meeting
    held on November 2 in Moscow.

    In the Moscow Declaration signed by the Presidents of the three
    countries they reiterate their willingness to settle the conflict
    peacefully, on the basis of the Madrid Principles adopted within the
    frameworks of the Minsk Group.

    "We re-assert our opinion that there is no military solution to
    the Karabakh conflict and call on the parties to reiterate their
    willingness of settling the conflict through peaceful methods,"
    runs the statement.
