PanARMENIAN.Net - On July 11, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia
Sergey Lavrov, as agreed earlier, met with co-chairs of OSCE Minsk
Group on Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement Bernard Fassier of
France, Robert Bradtke of the United States and Igor Popov of Russia,
as well as Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk, Personal Representative of
the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office.
As the Russian Foreign Ministery press service reports, during
consultations they discussed issues of further coordination of OSCE MG
co-chair countries' work including results of June 24 Kazan trilateral
summit, and following efforts undertaken by Russia, U.S. and France,
being mediators in the negotiation process.
On July 8, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov handed over a
personal message and proposals of RF President Dmitry Medvedev to
Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders Serzh Sargsyan and Ilham Aliyev.
At June 24 meeting in Kazan, the Presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan
and Russia failed to sign an agreement on basic principles of Karabakh
conflict settlement.
As Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian noted later, despite
the OSCE MG co-chairs' efforts, Azerbaijan was not ready to accept
the final version of basic principles, presenting ten new amendments
at the last moment.
