“Results of Azerbaijan and Armenia presidents Rambouillet talks is
not only failure of Nagorno Garabagh conflict resolution as well as
it is a failure of OSCE Minsk Group mission.” ex- Foreign minister of
Armenia Aleksandr Arzumanyan has made this statement. Negotiation
process, according to him, is prolonged not only by conflicting sides
but also the USA and European Union artificially.
“European Union appointed new representative to South Caucasus in
2006, Peter Semneby needs much time to be adopted to the situation.
Then the USA has changed its ambassador to Azerbaijan. This happens
to prolong the process by the end of 2006, and then pre-election
marathon will begin in Armenia. During the election process, as we
know, conflict regulation process stays in background.” Criticizing
the activity of OSCE Minsk Group in Rambouillet talks Arzumanyan has
stressed not existence of better mediating format. “I do not believe
happening any fundamental changes in regulation process. But after
Rambouillet talks, the tone sounded by Azerbaijani side does not
exclude this country’s start war.”/APA/
