Nagorno-Karabakh Republic
The OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs on Nagorno Karabakh conflict
settlement Yuri Merzlyakov/Russia/, Bernard Fassier/France/ and Robert
Bradtke/USA/ visited the Nagorno Karabakh Republic within the frames
of the regional visit.
The mediators met with the NKR President Bako Sahakyan. A wide range of
issues related to the settlement of the Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict
and regional processes were discussed at the meeting.
The Head of the State underlined the importance of restoring
the full-fledged format of negotiations, stating that it would be
impossible to reach the final settlement of the conflict without full
participation of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
The President drew the attention of those present to the need of
activating efforts aimed at strengthening mutual confidence between
the societies of the conflicting parties. Bako Sahakyan underlined
that bellicose and aggressive policy of Azerbaijan is one of the most
important obstacles of the peace process.
Touching upon the Armenian-Turkish relations, the President noted
that this process has nothing to do with the settlement of the
Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict and welcomed the Minsk group co-chairs'
analogous statement.
NKR Minister of Foreign Affairs Georgy Petrosyan and Personal
Representative of the OSCE chairman-in-office Andrzej Kasprzyk were
pre sent at the meeting.
After the meeting with the President, the OSCE Minsk Group Russian
co-chair Yuri Merzlyakov told the journalists, that Nagorno Karabakh
would by all means take part in the works on the adoption of basic
documents on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement. The US
newly-appointed co-chair Robert Bradtke underlined the importance
of acquaintance with the real situation in the NKR and with the
opinion of its leadership. At the same time, he noted that though
he is only on the way of getting acquainted with Nagorno Karabakh,
he has distinct positions on certain issues.
"One point is absolutely obvious: peaceful settlement can not be
reached without taking into account the Nagorno Karabakh people's
opinion", Robert Bradtke underlined.
