/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Among international reactions over the process of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement can be underlined two statements
made by G8 and OSCE Ministerial Council on July and November, says the
annual report on Armenia’s foreign activity during 2006. The document
underlines that ‘during the OSCE MC meeting in Brussels EU’s statement
was made public. The international community expressed its support to
OSCE MG in the issue of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, at
the same time urging the sides not to miss the opportunity to reach
a progress. The statement also highly estimates the current stage
of talks under the aegis of OSCE MG calling upon the presidents of
Azerbaijan and Armenia to double the efforts for coordinating the
basic principles.

Azerbaijan and Armenian have signed the Action Plan with EU in Brussels
on November, which supposes that the peaceful solution of the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict is a priority driven direction, and EU’s contribution
to that process is scheduled through a number of measures.

The NKR people, as a free way of expressing its will, during the
December nation-wide referendum voted for adopting the Constitution
of Karabakh. The responsibility of the NKR people to strengthen the
bases of independent statehood once again proved that in future the
Karabakh people will follow democratic principles and values, remaining
bound up the goals to peacefully solve the conflict according to the
principles of international law.

Despite the reached progress in ‘Prague Process’ and the obligations
of the sides on continuing the talks, Azerbaijan during 2006 performed
efforts to pass the Nagorno Karabakh problem into other international
structures (particularly the inclusion of ‘frozen conflicts’ in
the agenda of 61st of UN General Assembly by GUAM’s initiative),
speculations in UN and CoE Parliamentary Assembly over fire problems
in Karabakh and adjacent territories. Baku also continued to make
military statements, which contradict the spirit of the talks."
