`The parties need to change their positions to register a `break' in
the negotiation process on the Karabakh conflict settlement,' EU
Special Representative for the South Caucasus Peter Semneby declared
today after the meeting with NKR President Arkady Ghukasyan
In Peter Semneby's words, the international community anticipates
demonstration of political will from the parties, which is necessary
for accepting the suggestions of the OSCE Minsk Group.
`The European Union can use certain levers to promote the negotiation
process and support the efforts of the Co-Chairs,' Peter Semneby said.
The EU Special Representative laid special emphasis on the importance
of establishment of an atmosphere of trust between the parties.
NKR President Arkady Ghukasyan declared that during the negotiations
the parties have not come to an agreement on several pivotal issues:
conduct of a referendum, the status of Nagorno Karabakh and return of
territories. In NKR President's words, as far as Azerbaijan continues
demonstrating a non-constructive position, it will be difficult to
speak about reestablishment of trust between the parties.
