Yerevan supports a program to resolve the conflict over
Nagorno-Karabakh proposed by Kazakhstan, which currently chairs the
Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Armenian
Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said.
"Armenia and Kazakhstan have been cooperating vigorously within the
OSCE. Armenia once again reiterates its readiness to implement the
program of Kazakhstan's chairmanship. One of its key goals is the
strengthening of security in the South Caucasus," Nalbandian said
at a joint news conference with OSCE Chairman-in-Office and Kazakh
Foreign Minister Kanat Saudabayev after talks in Yerevan on Tuesday.
"Armenia supports the OSCE's central role in the settlement of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict," the Armenian minister said.
Nalbandian said he had informed Saudabayev of the progress made in the
settlement process, as well as Armenia's efforts to find a peaceful
solution to this issue.
Armenia and Azerbaijan continue to prepare their suggestions on ways
to sort out this conflict as part of agreements reached in Russia's
Black Sea resort of Sochi, he said.
Finding solutions to protracted conflicts is one of the top priorities
of Kazakhstan's OSCE chairmanship, the Kazakh foreign minister said.
"A solution to the [Nagorno-Karabakh] problem is in the hands of the
parties involved in this process. All other sides can only help them.
We plan to give impetus to the negotiating process. But we are
cautiously optimistic about the pace of these talks," Saudabayev said.
