/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Official Baku thinks that the latest differences
in OSCE MG Co-Chairs’ opinions are results of delays in the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict settlement, Novruz Mamedov – Chairman of the
Presidential Administration’s International Relations Department
stated. He said, "it is a wrong approach."
There are precedents in the world for such conflicts.
For example, the concept, which was put forward in regard with the
situation in Kosovo. "Road Map" plan was worked out in regard with
the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Some years ago UN Secretary General
Kofi Annan offered a plan for Cyprus. In our case, the Minsk Group
Co-Chairs as OSCE members and experts, can present their offers for
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, of course, in the framework
of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity. But instead of giving such
offers, they make various statements, and in most cases it results
in delay of negotiation process," Mamedov stressed.
He thinks, "the Co-Chairs cannot display a necessary and
concrete position in regard with the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
settlement." Touching upon "the efforts of Co-Chairs to make Armenia
and Azerbaijan responsible for the settlement of the conflict", N.
Mamedov said, "it is a categorically wrong approach".
"Azerbaijan’s position in the region in international processes
strengthens, that’s why the time has come to solve this conflict,"
he thinks, Trend reports.
