YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 7, ARMENPRESS: Deputy parliament chairman Tigran
Torosian from the ruling Republican Party and Shavarsh Kocharian
from the opposition Ardarutyun (Justice) alliance will fly to Paris
on September 12 to participate in the second meeting of an ad hoc
committee that was set up by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council
of Europe (PACE) to monitor the process of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict regulation. The first meeting took place on June 23 in
Strasbourg, France.

In Paris the OSCE Minsk group cochairmen from France, USA and Russia
will present a report to Minsk group member countries on what has been
done so far to that end. The ad hoc committee is expected to submit
its first report to PACE when it convenes for its winter session in
2006 January. The report will not, however, propose conflict resolution
options but will sum up information from Minsk group member countries
about what they have done to help end the conflict.

The PACE commission includes representatives from Armenia, Azerbaijan,
Turkey, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Sweden.
