ArmInfo. The co-chairmen of OSCE (Organization for Security
and Cooperation in Europe) on the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict do not support the draft resolution on Situation in Occupied
Territories of Azerbaijan introduced to the UN General Assembly.
"The draft resolution will not gain our support. All the Minsk Group
co-chairman countries are of the same opinion. The draft does not
indicate on what both the chairmen and conflicting parties were
working towards," Yuri Merzlyakov, the Russian co-chairman of Minsk
Group said to TrendNews on 14 March.
Merzlyakov said that the Resolution is too one -sided. "The draft
resolution indicates those items which are interesting only to
Azerbaijan. The project is one-sided, unbalanced and not timely at
all. We all did not expect this," Merzlyakov said. 'We propose either
to postpone the consideration of the given draft or just to try to
make it acceptable for adoption. The Azerbaijani delegation to New
York rejected our proposal referring to the absence of proofs. In
such situation all the Co-chair states have arrived to a conclusion
that they cannot support this draft. Although the 6th provision of
the document contains a very good paragraph that says how good the
Minsk Group co-chairs work', Merzlyakov says.
