The co-chairmen of the Minsk Group, a body appointed by the
Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe to mediate in the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, will hold a few meetings on the revision
of the "Madrid principles" proposed by mediator countries, French
co-chairman Bernard Fassier said.

Fassier told Armenian state news agency Armenpress he would visit
Armenia and Azerbaijan early in September, that the group’s American
co- chairman, Matthew Bryza, would visit the two countries in August,
and that all the co-chairmen would visit the region late in September.

Fassier said all visits by the group’s co-chairmen are aimed at
promoting dialogue between Armenia and Azerbaijan and at having them
bring their positions closer together.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
