OBSERVERS CALL ON TO MOBILIZE DIPLOMATIC RESOURCES FOR NEUTRALIZATION
OF AZERBAIJAN'S INITIATIVES IN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS
YEREVAN, November 5 (Noyan Tapan). The November 5 seminar organized
by the Center for Development and Public Dialogue was dedicated to
discussion of the situation formed in CE in the issue of peace
settlement of Karabakh conflict. Arayik Margarian, Head of the CE
Department of RA Foreign Ministry, briefly represented the history of
discussion of Karabakh issue in CE. He touched upon the report made by
Terry Davis, former PACE reporter on Nagorno Karabakh issue.
Margarian declared that this report once more affirmed the anxiety of
the Armenian side about the fact that high-ranking officials or
organizations who aren't aware of all the necessary details regarding
the issue aren't able to make an objective document. As for David
Atkinson, the new PACE reporter, the Foreign Ministry representative
declared that Atkinson was among the few PACE deputies who displayed
interest to Karabakh settlement from the very start. Arayik Margarian
also mentioned that the Armenian side has always strived for making
the discussions on Karabakh issue in CE only of information character
in order that no structure competing with OSCE should be established
within the framework of CE. What, according to him, can't be said
about Azerbaijan, which has always strived for establishment of
another format besides OSCE for Karabakh peace settlement. According
to Khachik Galstian, expert of the Media Model research center,
experience shows that the more structures are involved into discussion
of this or that problem the less effective the results of the
decisions are. He called on for mobilization of all diplomatic
resources of Armenia for neutralization of Azerbaijan's initiatives in
international organizations.
