Yerevan talks are constructive: OSCE MG French Co-Chair

Azerbaijan, Baku, Oct. 4 / Trend , E.Tariverdiyeva/ 

The talks in Yerevan were constructive, believe the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs, arriving in Baku on Oct. 4.

"The talks held in Yerevan have been constructive. Tomorrow we will meet with the Azerbaijani President and discuss the further talks," OSCE Minsk Group French Co-Chair, Bernard Fassier told journalists at the airport.

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts. Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding the peace negotiations.
