YEREVAN, DECEMBER 15, NOYAN TAPAN. The statement of OSCE Minsk Group
Co-chairs adopted at the OSCE Foreign Ministers' Helsinki meeting
gives the hope that the conflict settlement negotiations will continue
at the high level, OSCE Secretary General Marc Perrin de Brichambaut
stated at the December 15 press conference.
As to conflict settlement terms, the OSCE Secretary General said that
"practical flexibility is needed here, which is an issue of mutual
confidence, mutual respect." Marc Perrin de Brichambaut also said that
the situation in the Nagorno Karabakh settlement is rather complicated
and we should contribute to the settlement of the formed situation.
In response to Armenian opposition's assertion that OSCE observers'
conclusion on presidential elections in fact gave a green light to
violence by the authorities, the OSCE Secretary General said that
many do not imagine clearly OSCE observers' mission. In his words,
observation reports' goal is not to estimate the situation as good
or bad. "A report on elections is not an instrument of statements on
the bad, but means of democratic transition, and the OSCE observation
mission follows that way."
