In the press conference after the meeting with the FM Vardan Oskanyan
Dimitrij Rupel, the OSCE Chairman-in-Office called Nagorno Karabakh
President Arkadi Ghoukasyan `leader of Karabakh'. Asked the clarifying
question if he considers Arkadi Ghoukasyan leader of a tribe living in
Azerbaijan and not the President of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, he
answered, `I am the leader of the OSCE, but OSCE is not a tribe'.
Nevertheless, the Slovenia Foreign Minister made an announcement
profitable for the Armenians; he said that the Karabakh conflict is
special and it is not like other `cold' conflicts in the region.
The OSCE Chairman-in-Office appreciated the meetings with the
officials of Armenia as `interesting and effective'. But he did not
tellanything clear-cut in the meeting with the journalists repeating
that `Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders must use the window of present
opportunities'.
Besides the opportunity Robert Kocharyan and Ilham Aliev also have
commitments. According to Dimitrij Rupel, they must put an end to
their aggressive announcements.
This night the OSCE Chairman-in-Office will leave for Kyrgyzstan, from
where he will return to Armenia early in the morning and leave for
Tbilisi with his delegation. The head of the delegation explained the
overloaded agenda this way, `Unfortunately my work is very necessary
now; for this reason I will spend the night not in a hotel but on my
way to Armenia. I think it will be more effective'.
