/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The European Union supposes that the frozen conflicts
in the South Caucasus cannot be settled without laborious work for
creating the atmosphere of trust between the communities, majorities
and minorities in the region, EU Envoy for the South Caucasus Peter
Semneby stated. In his words, the atmosphere of trust should be
created between the states of the region and with the big neighbors
as well. “This is impossible without precise political and economic
outlook. All including the European Union and Russia as well as the
states of the region and all the interested parties should work for
it,” Mr. Semneby remarked adding that the escalation cannot be ruled
out until the conflicts are settled.
When commenting on the possibility of deploying EU and NATO
peacekeepers in the region, the EU Envoy said, “I am not empowered
to speak of NATO. As for the European Union, it’s possible. However
it will be one of many possibilities. Everything depends on the will
of the parties,” reported Nezavisimaya Gazeta.
