KARABAGH DIPLOMAT DOWNPLAYS UKRAINIAN OFFER
STEPANAKERT, MAY 26, ARMENPRESS: Nagorno-Karabakh deputy foreign minister
Masis Mailian downplayed a recent Ukrainian foreign minister's statement
that his government could deploy peacekeeping troops in the Karabakh
conflict zone.
Mailian cited an OSCE Budapest summit resolution stipulating that such
troops could be deployed only after all sides to the conflict achieve a
political settlement of the conflict. Mailian said it was early to speak
about the possibility of deployment of international peacekeeping forces
since no political document on the conflict resolution was signed. He also
said the ceasefire regime established in 1994 has been maintained for 11
years without international peacekeepers, and due to the balance of forces
of the conflicting sides.
