/PanARMENIAN. Net/ Baku’s efforts to attach religious coloring to
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict hamper the ongoing peaceful talks,
Armenian senior official said.

"We regret that Azerbaijan’s efforts to cash in on the religious
sentiment led to adoption of anti-Armenian resolutions by the
Organization of Islamic Conference," Edward Nalbandian said during
a joint press conference with his visiting Syrian counterpart Walid
Muallem.

"These resolutions distort the history of the conflict and jeopardize
regional security," he said, adding that Armenian people have
peacefully lived with neighboring Muslim states for centuries.
