Elina Valtonen, OSCE Chairperson-in-Office and Finland’s Minister for Foreign Affairs, welcomed the joint decision by Azerbaijan and Armenia to dissolve the OSCE Minsk Group, voicing optimism that the process would conclude by December 2025.

Speaking at a joint press conference in Yerevan with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan on 14 October, Valtonen said, “We positively view the joint appeal by Baku and Yerevan to dissolve the OSCE Minsk Group. We hope that this process will be completed no later than December.”

The OSCE Minsk Group was created in 1992 to mediate the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia. After the 2020 Patriotic War, Azerbaijan called for the group’s dissolution, and Armenia has now formally agreed to the move.
