to focus on ways to ensure the synchronized solution of problems
between Turkey and Armenia, and Azerbaijan and Armenia. Turkey expects
Russia to use its power to solve the dispute between Armenia and
Azerbaijan over the Nagorno-Karabakh through peaceful means. To this
end, Turkey urges Russia to speed up efforts under the MINSK Group

United States, and also includes the following participating states:
Belarus, Germany, Italy, Portugal, the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland,
