On July 27, Nagorno Karabakh Republic Foreign Minister Georgy
Petrossian received the delegation led by Vice Speaker of the British
Parliament House of Lords Baroness Caroline Cox.

On the request of the guests the Head of the NKR Foreign Office dwelt
upon the process of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement in the
context of recent regional and world events. "The Nagorno Karabakh
conflict is a complicated one, as a great number of interests are
coming into collision here, which acquire a special urgency from the
standpoint of the recent events in the region and in the world on
the whole," Georgy Petrossian said.

The Minister noted that the existing format of the negotiations on the
Karabakh conflict settlement did not reflect the core of the conflict.

"Unfortunately, today, the mediators focused their attention not on
the essence of the conflict but on the liquidation of the conflicts’
consequences. We emphasize once more that without the participation
of Nagorno Karabakh – the most suffered party to the conflict,
the achievement and realization of any agreements are impossible,"
Georgy Petrossian said.
