`Vienna, St. Petersburg agreements on Karabakh conflict should be documented`
The agreements reached at the Vienna and St. Petersburg meetings on the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict should be documents, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told a press conference in Hamburg Dec. 9.
Russia has repeatedly stated its position on the Vienna and St. Petersburg agreements, the FM noted.

“Those two meetings were attended by the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs too. According to the agreements, the ceasefire regime had to be confirmed. We observe sporadic violations of the ceasefire,” Lavrov said, adding. “According to the agreements, the number of the OSCE observers had to be increased. At least seven more persons are needed. We don’t know for sure where they will be based. I think they must be based on the contact line.”

The 23rd OSCE Ministerial Council kicked off on Dec. 8 in Hamburg, Germany. Azerbaijan’s Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov is also attending the meeting.

The two-day meeting will focus on the activities carried out during Germany’s chairmanship, as well as the existing conflicts in the OSCE area including the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
