Armenia’s Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian has said that his country
does not consider the possibility of joining the GUAM group of
countries (Georgia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Moldova), because the
ideological basis of that organization does not accommodate the
national interests.

Oskanian told a news conference in Yerevan that as before Armenia was
opposed to GUAM’s idea of a discussion of frozen conflicts at the UN
General Assembly session.

The adoption of such a resolution may greatly harm the process of the
Karabakh conflict’s settlement, which was moving along the constructive
track lately, Oskanian said.

Armenia regards as impermissible attempts "to put into one basket"
all conflicts in the post-Soviet space.

"The mediators themselves have stated more than once that the Karabakh
conflict is greatly different from all others," the Armenian foreign
minister recalled.
