OSCE says Nagorno-Karabakh peace deal could be close

Azerbaijan and Armenia are probably closer to settling the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict than they believe, US co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Robert Bradtke said today, Trend reports.

The official noted that the Minsk Group helped them agree on basic principles of settling the conflict, but their lack of trust and cooperation hinder the process.

The Minsk Group will mark its 20th anniversary on March 24.
