/PanARMENIAN.Net/ It’s premature to give assessments to Turkey and
Iran’s initiative to mediate for the Karabakh problem resolution,
chairman of the NKR NA committee on foreign relations Vahram Atanesyan
told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

NKR will announce its position after exact proposals are made,
according to him.

"As far as I remember, Iran was a mediator on the initial stage of
talks and it has experience in resolution of problems of the kind. As
for Turkey, I do question sincerity of its intentions. A supporter
to Azerbaijan, it will hardly be an impartial mediator," he said.

Iran and Turkey announced intention to mediate for resolution of the
Karabakh conflict after the Georgian-South Ossetian clashes. Russia
welcomed the initiate. However, OSCE Minsk Group French Co-chair
Bernard Fassier stated that the MG format is not subject to
transformation.
