He made the remarks following the November 14 meeting held in Brussels, Armenian Noyan Tapan news agency reported.

"I would not say that those moderate expectations came true in full but I can say that some progress was made," Oskanian said. He added he believed the negotiations should continue as there was some rapprochement following the Moscow and Paris meetings.

Oskanian also said that the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs have decided to offer the presidents to hold another meeting later this month at the CIS summit. But it is up to the presidents to accept or deny the offer, he added.

The co-chairs plan to visit the region shortly; they are to visit Yerevan as soon as November 21, according to Oskanian.
