OSCE MG proposed balanced and compromise packageDecember 7, 2007 - 18:23 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "We are working on the process of the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. The elections will be held, but we do not link it with the ongoing talks. OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs will again visit the region either in January or in February and we will continue negotiations. Of course, the main attention will be focused on the elections which will impede the settlement someway. But the negotiations will continue," Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian said."When asked whether shift in the Armenian government may affect the republic's position, he said, "I hope it will not happen. That's why the co-chairs want everybody in Armenia and all over the world to know the core principles in the document. Everybody should understand that no matter who will win the presidential elections in Armenia, the country will maintain its position on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. This document is balanced and durable to compromise. We should be sure that irrespective of the results of presidential elections in Azerbaijan and Armenia, position on Nagorno Karabakh conflict will not change," the Armenian Minister said in interview with APA.
