    Karabakh asks Yerevan, Baku to affirm peace settlement



    YEREVAN, April 8 (Itar-Tass) -- Nagorno-Karabakh has called on
    Armenia and Azerbaijan to affirm their readiness for peace settlement
    of the Karabakh conflict, says a statement by the unrecognized
    republic's Foreign Ministry presented to new special representative
    of the European Union for the South Caucasus Peter Semneby.

    Karabakh Foreign Minister Georgy Petrosyan said he was concerned
    about the increased violations of the cease-fire status along the
    contact line between Azerbaijan and Nagorno-Karabakh, a source at the
    Karabakh office in Yerevan told Itar-Tass.

    Petrosyan informed Semneby of the official position of Stepanakert on
    the Karabakh settlement. He said that Nagorno-Karabakh should be an
    equal party to the negotiations. The minister also spoke of Karabakh
    democratization.

    Semneby said that the mandate of the EU special representative for
    the South Caucasus had been extended into the prevention and
    settlement of conflicts.
