/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Head of the PACE Interim Committee on Nagorno
Karabakh Lord Russell-Johnston said he thinks of the opportunity
of resumption of hostilities in the conflict zone "with great
displeasure." Lord Russell-Johnston remarked, "creation of the NK
Committee at the PACE does not mean we work for becoming full mediators
in the talks." "The OSCE Minsk Group has been professionally dealing
with it for over 10 years now and I do not think the CE can replace it.
Our task is to provide the necessary assistance to the OSCE MG
co-chairs," said head of the PACE Interim Committee.
Russell-Johnston did not rule out a visit of the Interim Committee to
Armenia and Azerbaijan, as well as meetings with NK representatives
this year. "We also consider the opportunity to organize a meeting
between Armenian and Azeri MPs, however speaking of concrete agreements
is early still," Russell-Johnston said, Mediamax reports.
