The Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents' Moscow meeting will help in
reaching the finish line of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement,
the Russian Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, Yuriy Merzlyakov,
said at a news conference in Baku on July 10, Trend News reports.
"Our visit to the region was devoted to organizing the presidents'
meeting in Moscow and during the preparation we have continued to
exchange views on a number of outstanding basic principles for the
settlement of the conflict," said Merzlyakov.
"And we are satisfied with the meeting with the presidents. The
conversation was very constructive and I felt the presidents' positive
mood for the upcoming meeting," the diplomat said.
"We hope to conclude negotiations on at least on two issues to
resolve the conflict, and then open a new debate on the topic which
has been discussed only in general terms so far," the French Co-Chair,
Bernard Fassier said.
The diplomat expressed his hope that if they could achieve both
presidents' approval on the basic principles by late 2009, then it
would be possible to continue the work and transform it into a treaty
next year.
