/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The OSCE Minsk Group had been productively working
until Azerbaijan became too aggressive," RA National Assembly Vice
Speaker, presidential hopeful Vahan Hovhannisian said in an interview
with Military Diplomat magazine.

"This fact can be easily explained. Azerbaijan is being instructed
by a state which is not de jure a member of the Minsk Group but is
capable to prevent Azerbaijan from independent decision making. Hostile
Turkey imposes its inadmissible conditions. Thus, being represented
by Azerbaijan in the OSCE Minsk Group, Turkey violates the initial
plan of engaging neutral states in the negotiation process. This
happens with the connivance of international organizations," he said.

"It’s necessary to bring Nagorno Karabakh back to talks. I suppose
that if these two issues are settled, there will be no need to look
for alternative to the OSCE MG," he said.
