Co-Chairs' meetings in Yerevan
On March 2 the Foreign Minister of Armenia, Edward Nalbandian, had a meeting with the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs Yuri Merzlyakov (Russia), Bernard Fassier (France) and Matthew Bryza (USA), as well as the Personal representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Andrzej Kasprzyk.
The interlocutors discussed the process of negotiations on the settlement of the Karabakh issue. The Co-Chairs presented the results of their meetings in Baku and Stepanakert.
Edward Nalbandian welcomed the statement of the Co-chairs dated February 19, which, according to the Minister's assessment, excludes any alternative to the peaceful settlement of the Artsakh issue and is fully in line with the Moscow Declaration and the statements issued during the OSCE Ministerial meeting in Helsinki in 2008.
President's press service reports that during the meeting with the Armenian President and the Minsk Group Co-Chairs reference was made to the Zurich meeting of the Armenian and Azerbaijani Presidents.
The parties discussed issues connecting with the current phase of the negotiations over the Karabakh conflict resolution.
On Sunday, March 1, President Serzh Sargsyan hosted NKR President Bako Sahakyan.
