/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The exclusion of the Nagorno Karabakh delegation from
the negotiation process started immediately after the OSCE summit in
Budapest in December 1994, Russian Co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group
for the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement in 1992-1996 Vladimir
Kazimirovtold PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words, the exclusion
of NKR was initiated by Azerbaijan.

“Official Baku said that if Karabakh is engaged in the talks, it
should be presented by the Azeri community headed by Nizami Bahmanov
as well. This offer was rejected both by the Armenian side and the
mediators.

Then Baku insisted on the exclusion of the Armenian delegation of
Karabakh. Nevertheless I consider that the participation of the NKR
representatives is essential,” Kazimirov underlined.

As for the current stage of negotiations, Vladimir Kazimirov stated
that the responsibility should be shared by the Foreign Ministers
and Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan. In his opinion, NGOs should
also engage in the process.
