Vladimir Kazimirov: "Issue of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resolution is
in the military not in the political field"
27 May 2008 [14:23] - Today.Az
The key to the resolution of the Karabakh conflict is the
inadmissibility of military actions, said Vladimir Kazimirov, former
co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group and deputy chairman of the
Association of Russian diplomats.
"I do not see possibility for real and significant promotion of the
issue. As for the renewal of military actions, the key to resolution
of the whole Karabakh conflict is the inadmissibility of military
actions, as this threat has not been removed so far", said Kazimirov
in the international Novosti press center in Yerevan on May 27.
According to the former co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group,
Azerbaijan "makes military announcements, despite the continuing
consultations on the level of Presidents and Foreign Ministers of the
two countries".
At the same time, Kazimirov noted that these consultations differ from
the decision of the Budapest summits, which reads that the co-chairs
are empowered to hold talks between the conflict parties, which
implies the direct participation of Nagorno Karabakh.
Kazimirov said Azerbaijanis preserve chances for the military
resolution of the conflict, while "Armenians try to use more favorably
positions in the military sense, the current front line, which is the
shortest, compared with the contours of the former Nagorno Karabakh
Autonomous Republic.
"The issue is still in the military, not political area. Only when the
ceasefire is fixed reliably and conclusively, there will be a freedom
of maneuver on the political field, while until that the countries are
slaves of military counteraction", said Kazimirov
