    Yerevan and Baku have agreed on the text of a statement concerning
    the Karabakh peace process, according to OSCE Minsk Group Cochairman
    James Warlick.

    "For the first time in many years, we have an agreed on an OSCE
    statement on Nagorno-Karabakh between the Azerbaijan and Armenia
    Foreign Ministers," he wrote on Twitter.

    The U.S. intermediary did not say which document he wrote about.

    A source in the Armenian Foreign Ministry told Interfax that a
    statement following a meeting of the Armenian and Azeri foreign
    ministers had been posted on the OSCE website.

    Armenian Foreign Minister Eduard Nalbandian and Azeri Foreign Minister
    Elmar Mammadyarov met with the mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group
    cochairmen in Kyiv on December 4.

    A statement of the intermediaries published on the OSCE website
    upon the end of the meeting between the Armenian and Azeri foreign
    ministers said that Nalbandian and Mammadyarov would meet in early
    2014 to prepare further negotiations on a high level.

    The sides "agreed to continue working together on a just and peaceful
    resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict on the basis what has
    been already achieved," the statement said.

    "The Co-Chair Heads of Delegation welcomed the recent resumption of
    high-level dialogue between the Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia,
    and expressed their hope that upcoming meetings will advance the
    peace process. They encouraged the sides to consider measures that
    would reduce tensions in the region," it said.
