the co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Edward Nalbandyan, the Foreign
Minister of Armenia, said, Novosti-Armenia reports.
"These suggestions are the result of long-term efforts of the co-chairs
and their contacts with the conflicting sides. The Madrid document

on them," Nalbandyan said to a press-conference on 4 June.
