All sides involved in the Nagorno- Karabakh conflict must seek a
peaceful settlement, said the European Union’s Enlargement Commissioner
Stefan Fuhle.
This conflict must be settled peacefully, he said in Baku on Friday,
adding that the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia must assume
definite responsibilities.
Fuhle said that he had discussed the Nagorno-Karabakh problem with
Azeri President Ilham Aliyev and met with Azeri refugees.
He said it was important for him to see everything with his own eyes.
However attentive one may be to refugees and displaced persons,
they need to return to their native land, he said.
Nagorno-Karabakh is a disputed territory inside Azerbaijan with a
population largely made up of ethnic Armenians.
