“Concrete and tangible steps in the resolution of protracted conflicts should remain high on the OSCE’s agenda, and the Organization should continue to play a role in addressing the protracted conflicts in the OSCE space,” the US Department of State said in a statement on the outcomes of the 2013 OSCE Ministerial.
“The foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan met in Kiev to continue dialogue on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict; their joint statement with the U.S., Russian, and French heads of delegation, which was endorsed by the OSCE Ministerial Council, is an encouraging sign of our shared commitment to making progress toward a peaceful settlement,” the State Department said.
