NKR Foreign Ministry: The current format of negotiations
does not reflect the core of the conflict

The talks for Nagorno-Karabakh are not an end in itself but the NKR
authorities stand ready to discuss any issue that would not violate the
interest of the Karabakh people and threaten its security, NKR Foreign
Minsiter Georgy Petrossian said during his meeting with Vice Speaker
of the British Parliament's House of Lords Baroness Caroline Cox.
"The Nagorno Karabakh conflict is a complicated one, as a great number
of interests are coming into collision here, which acquire a special
urgency from the standpoint of the recent events in the region and
in the world on the whole," Georgy Petrossian said.
The Minister noted that the existing format of the negotiations on the
Karabakh conflict settlement did not reflect the core of the conflict.
"Unfortunately, today, the mediators focused their attention not on
the essence of the conflict but on the liquidation of the conflicts'
consequences. We emphasize once more that without the participation
of Nagorno Karabakh - the most suffered party to the conflict,
the achievement and realization of any agreements are impossible,"
Georgy Petrossian said.
