"We are using all our capabilities to resolve the conflict. The
latest agreements in Athens and the meeting between the presidents
of Azerbaijan and Armenia in Sochi gives us optimism," Saudabayev
said at a briefing after talks with Azerbaijani Foreign Minister
Elmar Mammadyarov.
"This is my first trip as OSCE chair, and I thank Azerbaijan for its
support of Kazakhstan's chairship," said the minister.
According to Saudabayev, a major goal of the visit is to become
acquainted with the entire spectrum of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
and its settlement.
"This is a priority for Kazakhstan, as the OSCE chairperson and
President Nursultan Nazarbayev have not reduced their interest in
the conflict. We know the history of the issue and are using all our
resources to solve the conflict," he said.
