According to a report appearing in the Azeri "Trend" news wire, Goran Lenmarker, the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly's Special Rapporteur on the Karabakh conflict has stated that the recently reenvigorated negotiations process regarding Karabakh conveys hope that the conflict will be resolved within a fairly narrow time window. Mr. Lenmarker said that he intends to discuss new ideas as to how to improve the Karabakh process with the foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan. Mr. Lenmarker will meet with the two foreign ministers at the monthly meeting of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly heads to be held in Helsinki from December 4-5. He then intends to visit the region for a first hand view of the situation and then discuss the settlement process with the governments of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
