MG co chair, Baku to mull ways of settling Karabakh conflict
By Sara Rajabova
The co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, which is engaged in resolution of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, will discuss ways to resolve the conflict in Baku next week, the U.S. Embassy in Azerbaijan told Trend news agency on October 30.
Ambassador James Warlick of the U.S. will visit Baku at the beginning of the week, the embassy said.
For over two decades, Azerbaijan and Armenia have been locked in conflict which emerged over Armenia's territorial claims against its South Caucasus neighbor. Since a war in the early 1990s, Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven surrounding regions. A fragile ceasefire has been in place since 1994, but long-standing efforts by US, Russian and French mediators have been largely fruitless so far. Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on its pullout from the neighboring country's territories.
