"It is impossible to sign a framework agreement during the upcoming
meeting of the presidents in Moscow.
I hope for turning point in Moscow relying on the development in
St Petersburg", OSCE Minsk Group US Co-Chair Matthew Bryza told
journalists in Baku. Bryza said the signing of framework agreement
is a long process and it would take much. "In any case, the progress
depends not on us, but on the presidents. Relying on the atmosphere
we saw in Armenia yesterday and President Aliyev's latest statements,
I can say that there is a hope".
Bryza said positive change in the atmosphere in Armenia is related
with the latest statement by the President of Azerbaijan. "I believe
these statements are important to prepare Azerbaijani population for
the framework agreement as well".
15:53 Armenia's mood concerning the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
settlement has been considerably improved,the OSCE Minks Group
U.S. Co-Chair Matthew Bryza said.
The statement came before his visit to Baku from Yerevan, where the
mediators held the talks on the Karabakh settlement yesterday.
"I think it will lead to some progress in the talks. I hope the U.S.,
French and Russian presidents will express their opinion on this
issue at the G-8 summit," Bryza said.
Bryza said the Azerbaijani president's statement is fertile ground
to develop a "framework agreement" to resolve the conflict. "We have
designed a" framework agreement", some points of which do not satisfy
Armenia, but there are also some points with which they agree,"
the co-chair said.
Advance observed in the Karabakh settlement indicate that the two
presidents and two ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan are very
serious about their work, and each of the countries supports peaceful
resolution of the conflict, Bryza said.
The next negotiations between the Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents
will take place in Moscow, he said.
"The constructive negotiations were held in Yerevan and we hope
for such negotiations in Baku which will enable to achieve the next
progress," Bernard Fassier, the French Co-Chair told journalists.
