06 February 2010 09:11 (UTC +04:00)

Kanat Saudabayev expressed his hope that during its chairmanship Kazakhstan would achieve some progress in the solution to the â€œprotracted conflictsâ€.
â€œTaking into account Kazakhstanâ€™s mental proximity with the participants of the conflicts and President Nursultan Nazarbayevâ€™s influence among these nations, we think we can give an impetus to the efforts of our partners in this hard process,â€ he said at the meeting of the UN Security Council.
Saudabayev said his visit to the South Caucasus on February 15 in capacity of OSCE Chairman-in-Office would be devoted to the solution of those issues.

Protracted conflicts in the post-Soviet area are Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno Karabakh conflict, South Ossetia and Abkhazia problem of Georgia and Transnistria problem of Moldova.
