/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Nagorno Karabakh representatives have to sooner or
later become involved in conflict settlement negotiations, according
to OSCE MG Co-Chair Bernard Fassier .
"People, who’ve resided in Nagorno Karabakh before the war, have to
speak out. A time will come for Karabakh people to be more actively
involved in negotiation process," he said at 73rd NATO PA Rose Roth
seminar in Yerevan.
Drawing parallels between Karabakh conflict and Kosovo issue, the
Co-Chair noted: "Those two instances can’t be compared. Kosovo faced
an internal conflict on the territory of one state. Karabakh conflict
is also an internal problem, yet both Armenia and Azerbaijan are
involved in it." According to the expert, Kosovo precedent forced
Azerbaijan to show more caution in Karabakh conflict settlement issue.
"What was an option for Kosovo can’t be realized in Karabakh," the
French mediator emphasized.
