/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Nagorno Karabakh President Arkady Ghukasian has doubts
that the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs will propose a finite program of the
Karabakh conflict settlement during the upcoming visit to the region,
Mediamax reported. When commenting of the necessity of establishing dialogue
between the Armenian and Azeri communities of Nagorno Karabakh A. Ghukasian
noted, `Azeri community can first establish dialogue with the Russia, Greek,
Ukrainian and other communities of Karabakh.’ In his words, Baku’s attempt
to create an impression that Nagorno Karabakh is not a conflict zone but a
community is the evidence of Azerbaijan’s not serious approach towards the
conflict settlement. `Unwillingness to open negotiations with Stepanakert
protracts the resolution of problems the Azeri people are concerned at’,
Arkady Ghukasian stressed.
