/PanARMENIAN.Net/ There is no need to replace mediators on settlement
of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian stated
in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta. In his words, the current
format, which involves states that are well familiar with the region,
is the most optimal one.

“Russia US and France enjoy sufficient confidence of the parties. At
that their mediation mission attributes more responsibility to the
parties to conflict in searching for solution,” Oskanian said.

At that Vartan Oskanian underscored that the way of compromise
is very hard and it demands political will and resoluteness from
the parties, as well as political pragmatism. “As of Armenia,
which continues efforts to settle the issue as soon as possible,
we recently displayed sufficient flexibility and we expect a similar
approach from the other party,” the Armenian FM said.
