    2015 should be year for lasting settlement of Karabakh conflict - OSCE MG

    5 January 2015, 11:46 (GMT+04:00)

    By Jamila Jafarova - Trend:

    The US co-chair of OSCE Minsk Group James Warlick wrote on Twitter
    about his expectations from 2015 in terms of settlement of
    Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    "2015 should be a year for Nagorno-Karabakh peace and a lasting
    settlement," Warlick tweeted. "Renewed violence is not the answer."

    The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. As a result
    of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent
    of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven
    surrounding districts.

    The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs
    of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the US are currently
    holding peace negotiations.

    Armenia has not yet implemented the UN Security Council's four
    resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    surrounding regions.
