"As I know, the co-chairs will intensify their efforts further, a meeting with the foreign ministers of the two countries (Armenia and Azerbaijan-Ed.) In New York is being prepared. Most likely, there will be some preparatory measures to improve the level of work with the parties, in terms of preparing a new summit,- said Lukashevich.

It should be noted that on July 11 the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs issued a joint statement following the meeting with the Armenian and Azeri FMs, in which they noted that an agreement has been reached to hold the next meeting of the foreign ministers of the two countries in New York in September in the fields of the UN General Assembly.
