/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "As a matter of fact, ability of the parties to
the Karabakh conflict to make agreements and fulfill commitments is
questioned. Threats to resume hostilities run counter to the commitment
to resolve the conflict peacefully, as urged by the Council of Europe
entry condition. Verbal threats are transformed into real deeds through
armament race and incitement of hatred towards the neighbor nation,"
former Russian Co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, Ambassador Vladimir
Kazimirov said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net.
"Two out of three parties cannot agree on settlement
‘principles’. However, to sign an agreement does not mean to implement
it. That is why the OSCE should take it into account and refrain from
superfluous ‘tolerance’ in the Karabakh issue. Presently, Armenians
make use of Azerbaijan’s obvious irresponsibility as regard the UN
resolutions. But democracy is not the only point for competition. The
state’s consistency is also an important factor at the international
arena," he said.
