The EU Special Representative in the South Caucasus Peter Semnebi told
the reporter of the Radio Liberty that Armenia will remain isolated
as long as the conflict is unsettled. According to him, the EU will
become engaged in the settlement of the conflict over Karabakh. He
stated that the settlement of the South Caucasian conflicts will be
one of the priorities of the EU, which is a signal of a more active
engagement in the settlement of disputes. According to Peter Semnebi,
the EU mandate has been expanded to involve settlement of conflicts. At
the same time, Semnebi expressed concern about the calls for settling
the Karabakh conflict through war, saying that the war will have
dramatic consequences.
