ArmInfo. '2008 was successful from the viewpoint of Nagorno Karabakh
conflict solution. I am frequently using phrase of "golden opportunity"
and after the last meeting I guess that elaboration of basic principles
will be completed by the next spring and work on peace agreement
will start.
Settlement of the conflict depended on the will of sides at last',
OSCE PA President's Special Representative on the South Caucasus and
Nagorno Karabakh conflict Goran Lennmarker said, Day.az reports.
"There are unresolved issues, disagreements, but I believe that the
sides will solve these issues. I told Azerbaijani Foreign Minister
today that the process should move forward and finish soon. The
settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict is important just now because
there are a lot of factors of instability in your region". Goran
Lennmarker positively appreciated the Turkey's proposal to mediate
in the conflict settlement and said this initiative was advantageous
not only for Azerbaijan and Armenia. "I hope that borders between
Turkey and Armenia will be opened soon". The Special Representative
said Caucasus could not avoid the world financial crisis.
"The regional countries should be closer and friendly in such
situation. It is one of the positive European experiences and you
can use it". Goran Lennmarker said he intended to visit the region
in next February.
