    Yuri Merzlyakov: "As the occupation continues, the regulation of
    settlement problem will not be possible"

    24 March 2005 [15:05] - Today.Az

    "Nagorno Karakbakh authority let the fact investigating group of OSCE
    know that they support the settlement in Lachin".

    This was stated to APA by the Russian co- chairman of OSCE Yuri
    Merzlyakov expressing his attitude to the statement of Azerbaijan
    Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) about the report of the mission.

    It must be mentioned that, MFA in the statement noted that, the mission
    generally fulfilled its duty, but expressed its dissatisfaction because
    the direct role of Armenia in the settlement was not indicated in
    the report.

    Y.Merzlyakov expressing attitude to this opinion stated that, the
    mission didn't determine the settlement to be the result of purposely
    policy of Armenia: "But still, there is information that, Upper
    Garabagh authority supports the one who settle there. Co-chairs did
    not determine any coordination to be present between Upper Garabagh
    authority and the government of Armenia". Y.Merzlyakov touched
    the declarations of co-chairs about checking the settlement facts:
    "In that document it is stated that, settlement policy in occupied
    territories should be stopped".

    The answer of Russian co-chairman to the question about calling the
    settled people back to their former places was: "As the occupation
    continues, as the territories are under the control of Armenian
    forces but not Azerbaijan, the matter of the people settled in those
    territories will not be solved completely. The regulation of the
    conflict should be achieved as soon as possible. The regulation of
    settlement problem will to be solved until the troops are called back
    from the territories. The solution of this problem is not possible
    by the principal "the ones who didn't live here before should leave"".

    Russian co-chairman expressing attitude to the matter of violation
    of ceasefire in the last period very often stated that, this only
    affects negatively the process of talks. /APA/
