ArmInfo. Coordinator of Nagornyy Karabakh Committee 'Helsinki
Initiative - 92' Karen Ohanjanyan took part in constitutive conference
on setting up of Independent Civil Minsk Process held in Tbilisi on
20-23 May.
As Ohanjanyan told Arminfo correspondent in Stepanakert, Civil Minsk
Process was set up to assist peaceful and fair settlement of the
Azerbaijani-Karabakhi conflict. Its purpose is to promote attracting
of civil society in the civil process. 'It is obvious that despite
optimism of official authorities of Armenia and Azerbaijan official
talks on Karabakh settlement within the frames of the OSCE Minsk Group
are far from agreement which would satisfy all the parties to the
conflict. Moreover, official talks are close and the societies of our
countries are deprived of the real information about the course of the
talks. This causes various rumours which poison the idea of peaceful
talks. For this reason there is a serious necessity of revisiting the
whole negotiating process in which the societies of our countries will
play more weighty part in searching the ways of peaceful settlement
of the Karabakh conflict. This new process is a serious challenge to
all the formats of the talks on Karabakh settlement', - Ohanjanyan
said and added that the Declaration was adopted unanimously.
