    US SEE NO ALTERNATIVE TO PEACEFUL SETTLEMENT OF KARABAKH CONFLICT

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The United States do not see any alternative to
    Karabakh issue negotiations, which must lead to peaceful resolution
    of the conflict, Donald Lu, Charge d'affaires of the U.S. Embassy said.

    "Peace negotiations require political will from both sides,"
    he emphasized.

    "United States leaders, President Obama, Secretary of State Clinton
    are committed to resolving this conflict," Trend New cited Donald Lu
    as saying.

    The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict broke out back in 1991, when, subsequent
    to the demand for self-determination of the Nagorno-Karabakh people,
    Azerbaijani authorities attempted to resolve the issue through ethnic
    cleansings, carried out by Soviet security forces (KGB special units)
    under the pretext of the implementation of the passport regime and by
    launching of large-scale military operations, which left thousands dead
    and caused considerable material damage. A cease-fire agreement was
    established in 1994. Negotiations on the settlement of the conflict are
    being conducted under the mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen
    (Russia, USA, France) and on the basis of their Madrid proposals,
    presented in November, 2007.

    Azerbaijan has not yet implemented the 4 resolutions of the UN
    Security Council adopted in 1993, by continuing to provoke arms race
    in the region and openly violating on of the basic principles of the
    international law non-use of force or threat of force.
