“None of our three countries, nor any other country, recognizes Nagorno-Karabakh as an independent and sovereign state”, says the statement issued by OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs.
According to the statement, Co-Chairs do not accept the results of these “elections” as affecting the legal status of Nagorno-Karabakh, and stress that they in no way prejudge the final status of Nagorno-Karabakh or the outcome of the ongoing negotiations to bring a lasting and peaceful settlement to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Along with the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs Ambassadors Igor Popov of the Russian Federation, James Warlick of the United States of America, and Pierre Andrieu of France, the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office, Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk participated in the meetings.

The Ministers agreed to meet again with the Co-Chairs, to shape the agenda for the Presidents` discussion. They also welcomed Co-Chairs` upcoming visit to the region”.
