"I can’t say anything about the settlement of the conflict now mostly
because EU is not in the OSCE Minsk Group, but the European Union can
and will play a role in the solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict. We
have great experience in this field. Our conflict experience could
be useful for the Karabakh conflict too," EU Special Representative
of the South Caucasus Peter Semneby told APA.

"Regarding the negotiation process I can say that there
was intensification over the past year. Azerbaijani and Armenian
presidents and foreign ministers held a number of meetings. They even
signed a document in Moscow a year ago, which is a positive event
in the settlement of the conflict. We hope that the process will be
developed," Semneby said.

Semneby said he couldn’t say anything about the upcoming meeting of
Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents in November.
