/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "On the whole taking into account the final result,
namely an intention to send the OSCE Mission with support of the
U.N. experts to the region to assess the long-term and short-term
threats, which can lead to ecological catastrophe in the region,
the Resolution can be considered acceptable for the NKR," NKR
Foreign Minister Georgy Petrosyan said. "Moreover, it is necessary
to emphasize that this process is a logical continuation of Nagorno
Karabakh authorities' initiative. The NKR authorities were extremely
alarmed at the situation with the fires as those inflammations caused
damage to the agriculture of our republic. In connection with this
the NKR MFA sent a note to the Office of the Personal Representative
of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office with an urgent request to conduct a
crisis-monitoring in the area bordering with Azerbaijan. Two weeks late
the OSCE Mission conducted a series of monitorings, which resulted in
the report of Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office,
which refuted the accusations of the Azerbaijani side on alleged
burnings of settlements in the NKR security zone. Thus, the NKR
authorities were the first to address the OSCE for a dispatch of
a monitoring group to the region, which was passed over in silence
by the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen in their report, which was made
public at the General Assembly's session. However, if the report of
the OSCE high rank needs additional confirmation, - we are ready to
receive a new Mission of the OSCE to discredit Azerbaijani myths once
more," the Minister added.
However, according to the NKR FM, the position of this issue in the
U.N. itself and some formulas of the Resolution are not acceptable. The
attempts to transfer the issues which are to be solved by the OSCE
Minsk Group to the UN cannot promote the advance of negotiation
process but only postpone the possible prospect of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement.
"The fact that the given Resolution, namely its contents is a result
of consensus between Armenia and Azerbaijan - rare phenomenon for
recent years, especially under the conditions of the absence of
confidence between the parties, is worthy of notice and it can be
only welcomed. We consider that such projects are to be discussed
with participation of all three parties to the conflict in order to
avoid problems in the course of implementation of accepted decisions
especially because these decisions concern the territories which are
exceptionally under the control of the Nagorno Karabakh republic's
authorities.
The NKR's position remains invariable - we are going to continue
our cooperation with the international structures and are ready to
assist the work of a group of experts sent by the OSCE exclusively
from neutral countries," Georgy Petrosyan said, reported the NKR MFA
press office.
