/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The European Union can resolve the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict, member of European Parliament from Lithuania Vitautas
Landsbergis said.

`Only the EU can reconcile Azerbaijan and Armenia,’ said Landsbergis,
who took part in 18th economic forum in Polish city of Krynitsa.

Landsbergis sees the way out of the long-drawn conflict in the
admission to EU. `If Azerbaijan and Armenia will join EU, there will
be no problems as in fact, there will be no borders between the two
countries,’ Landsbergis, ex-president of Lithuania said.

He said, however, admission of Azerbaijan and Armenia to EU will not
take place any time soon.

`But Russia will not let such a resolution. It contradicts to Russia’s
interests,’ he said in seminar EU-South Caucasus: Perspective Spheres
of Economic Cooperation held within the framework of forum, Trend
