Armenia does not discuss Karabakh issue settlement with Turkey, RA
Foreign Ministry press secretary Tigran Balayan said, commenting on
the statement of his Turkish counterpart, that Turkey will actively
participate in OSCE Minsk Group activities. According to Balayan,
Armenia’s stance is clear and stated repeatedly.
As NEWS.am reported earlier, referring to high ranking European
official, the meeting of OSCE Minsk Group 11 Ambassadors takes place
in Vienna every two years. "This time, Turkish side appealed with
a request to replace their Ambassador to Vienna for deputy minister
Cevikoz, being on a visit to the city," the diplomat said. He also
added that it bears no relation with the activities or standpoint of
OSCE MG Co-Chairs on Karabakh conflict settlement. "On the contrary,
the Co-Chairs have repeatedly stated that Turkey is not and will not
be involved in the Karabakh peace process, that is in OSCE MG work,"
the official concluded.
