ArmInfo. "It is surprising that Nagorno Karabakh conflict has not yet
solved after long-term talks," Peter Semneby, EU Special Representative
for the South Caucasus said, APA reports.

"Despite of long-term talks, the conflict has not yet solved. There
is relative stability in Nagorno Karabakh conflict. It is good that,
unlike Abkhazia and South Ossetia, Nagorno Karabakh is not mentioned
in this context. I am sure that, it is good. One conflict is not at
least mentioned in South Caucasus. I want to add that, the talks are
not carried out on the settlement of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. I
hope that, the talks will be resorted after elimination of tension
around Kosovo and stabilization of situation in Georgia. The talks
are continued on the settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Armenia
and Azerbaijan have full rights in the talks on the settlement of
Nagorno Karabakh conflict in the framework of OSCE MG.

This prevents tragic situations," he said. Mr. Semneby stated that
he is against the identification of conflicts in South Caucasus with
Kosovo conflict.

"Every conflict has its history. These conflicts have more differences
than similarities. It is not true to compare Nagorno Karabakh conflict
with Kosovo conflict or other conflicts.
