OSCE LEFT OUT KARABAKH FROM TALKS
Azat Artsakh Daily – Nagorno Karabakh Republic [NKR]

In a recent news conference in Yerevan Arman Melikian, adviser to NKR
president on external relations, said the Nagorno-Karabakh issue is a
geopolitical issue rather than a dispute between two countries. At the
same time, he said the recent visit of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs
did not add anything new to the process. `The OSCE Minsk Group is also
to blame that Karabakh is not taking part in the talks, which decided
for whatever reason that it is easier to reach agreement with the
leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan and release the results for
Karabakh. We do not accept this,’ said Arman Melikian. He also said
there are no controversies between Armenia and NKR on the principles
of settlement. `Status is the core issue, which denies everything
except independence. There is another underlying issue, the fate of
the Armenian refugees whom they never remember,’ said the foreign
adviser to NKR president.
