/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Council of Europe Secretary General Terry Davis
supposes that parties to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict are close to
an agreement.
"I met with Foreign Minister of Armenia and Azerbaijan and got an
impression that both sides are close to an agreement," Mr Davis told
a new conference in Strasbourg.
He regretted over protraction of the peaceful process.
"The OSCE Minsk Group is working for resolution of the conflict. But
their decisions can't be imposed on the sides. The MG is only an
intermediary," Davis said, adding that he can comprehend official
Baku's criticism of the Minsk Group activities.
"Peaceful settlement of the conflict is in the interests of the nations
living in the region. Warlike spirit has subsided recently. It will
help the sides to achieve peace," he said, Trend Azeri news agency
reported.
