Armenian President, OSCE MG Co-Chairs Discussed Karabakh Process

On Nov. 26, RA President Serzh Sargsyan met with OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs Robert Bradtke (USA), Bernard Fassier (France) and Igor Popov (Russia), as well as Personal Representative of the OSCE Chair-in-Office, Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk.

On the threshold of the Dec. 1–2 OSCE Summit in Astana, Kazakhstan, the parties discussed issues related to the current stage of the process to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, reports the RA president’s official website.

Note that the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh broke away from Azerbaijan after a bloody war in the 1990s and is populated mainly by ethnic Armenians. Today it exists as a de-facto independent state under an uneasy ceasefire, and OSCE-brokered efforts to resolve its status have so far been unsuccessful.
