/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian Foreign Minister does not categorically
agree with the statements of some Azeri representatives that the
OSCE Minsk Group slows down the negotiation process on the Karabakh
settlement.
Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian in the interview to the
PanARMENIAN.Net journalist said there is no sense in continuing
negotiations, if those statements are right. "I do not see any
logic in that statement. And if the Azeri side really thinks so,
its goal is clear: to exert pressure on the Co-Chairs, continuing
efforts to pass the Nagorno Karabakh conflict problem to other
structures. However, judging by readiness of Azeri authorities to
participate in negotiations, today such opinion does not prevail with
Azeri side," he said.
Commenting on the last meeting with his Azeri counterpart Elmar
Mamedyarov, Vartan Oskanian noted, "As was reported before, during
negotiations we continued to discuss principles of settlement, we
touched upon details of document. In the result of constructive and
encouraging talks we agreed on continuing meetings. I wouldn't like
to pay a special importance to the statements of some representatives
of Azeri delegation and I hope that the Azeri side will be loyal
to the spirit and letter of the document on the table and desire to
fix progress. Moreover, we are inclined just so. Our positive mood
proceeds also from intensive and serious preparations of Minsk Group
Co-Chairs to discuss the situation with conflicting parties. And we
will be able to speak about results of coming meeting after it ends.
The next meeting between Armenian and Azeri FMs will be held in Geneva
March 14.
