The presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan made "important progress"
in talks about Nagorno-Karabakh on Sunday, but some difficulties were
identified, French OSCE mediator Bernard Fassier said, reports Reuters.
"Some important progress has been reached," he told reporters
after more than four hours of talks in Munich. "At the same time,
we identified some difficulties."
US OSCE mediator Robert Bradtke said he was impressed by the political
will to seek a settlement.
"I think today what was impressive was the way the two presidents
worked with us, ... their willingness to discuss points that are
quite difficult and quite controversial and I think, as someone who is
relatively new to this process, that is what impressed me the most,"
Bradtke said, reports the BBC.
Fassier said he and his co-mediators from the United States and
Russia would prepare the next meeting, without specifying when it
would take place.
