/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `Each conflict has its peculiarities. I never draw
parallels between the Karabakh and Georgian-Abkhazian conflicts. There is
one exception only – all the conflict should be settled peacefully’, US
Co-Chair of the US Minsk Group Steven Mann, who heads the delegation of US
diplomats to Abkhazia at the moment, stated, IA Regnum reports. In Mr.
Mann’s words, when performing mediatorial mission for settling the conflicts
the attention should be paid to what the conflicting parties say but not to
the publications in press. When responding to the question whether he
expects Baku to take some steps in view of the recent statements by the
Armenian Defense Minister on the possible concessions Steven Mann said he
prefers not to use subjunctive mood when speaking. `I and other members of
the OSCE Minsk Group will continue the dialogue with the Armenian and Azeri
Foreign Ministers. I also hope that we will succeed in arriving at an
efficient, constructive and concrete resolution’, he resumed.
