"I am not in a state of neither pessimism nor euphoria after
Rambouillet talks yielding no result. Having these feelings impedes
settlement process. It is not surprising that Rambouillet talks ended
fruitlessly," OSCE Minsk Group ex-co-chair Vladimir Kazimirov stated
(APA). Russian diplomat thinks that it is necessary to continue the
negotiations and new meetings in the level the sides decide.
"But it is superfluous to create a show about these meetings. Before
presidents' meetings, some try to indicate their dreams as a reality,
some concern that presidents may make concession. As a result, before
the meetings, presidents begin to promise that they will not make
concession, the opposite side should make a compromise. International
affairs should be conducted in this manner; it is needed to put
an end to these shows. Meetings should be held in working regime,
if the sides show interest to settlement process, no information
should be publicized about the meetings beforehand. Or, if the sides
aren't interested in resolution of the conflict, then this show can
be continued".
As always, Vladimir Kazimirov proposed that negotiations' format
should be changed; separatist regime in Nagorno Garabagh should be
involved in the process as a conflicting side.
