    "The Moscow meeting of the presidents of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan
    last weekend gives grounds for optimism", said co-chairs of the OSCE
    Minsk group Yuri Merzlyakov (Russia), Bernard Fassier (France) and
    Matthew Bryza (the United States) by results of their speech with
    the OSCE special representative on Nagorno Karanakh Anzhey Kaspshik
    in front of the OSCE permanent council in Vienna.

    "There are personal and objective factors in the region, which give
    grounds for the the co-chairs to be carefully optimistic", said
    Matthew Bryza.

    "As for the personal factors, the meeting of Presidents Aliyev and
    Sargsyan in Moscow on November 2 proved the constructiveness of their
    first meeting in Saint-Petersburg in June of the last year.

    This spirit of constructiveness allowed them to sign the first
    declaration on Nagorno Karabakh", Bernard Fassier supported the
    counterpart, adding that the discussions between Ankara and Yerevan
    can also be added to the list of positive factors.

    According to the OSCE press service, the objective factors should
    include changes in some aspects since the war in South Ossetia.

    The co-chairs said Armenia felt the vulnerability of the ways of its
    export and import via Georgia, while Azerbaijan felt vulnerability
    of energy corridor via Georgia.

    Yuri Merzlyakov reminded that "the Moscow meeting, though prepared
    long before its conduction by the bilateral channels Russia-Armenia
    and Russia-Azerbaijan, is nevertheless in the framework of the Minsk
    Group countries efforts on mediation in the negotiations".

    Anzhey Kaspshik reminded that 25 people died this year at the front
    of the Karabakh conflict and noted that such incidents cause a great
    damage to the process of peaceful solution.

    The Minsk Group co-chairs also announced the plans to visit the region
    before the session of the OSCE Minsk Group in Helsinki, planned for
    December 4-5.

    They promise to work with the conflict parties to fix the recently
    achieved positive impulse and try to find a mutually profitable for
    settlement of the remaining differences between the parties.
