/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Foreign Minister Ali Babacan has praised Russia for
hosting talks between the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan on the
long-running dispute over Nagorno Karabakh, dismissing suggestions
that Moscow's diplomatic drive is an attempt to steal the mediator
role from Ankara.
"It is a fact that no solution can be achieved in Nagorno Karabakh
without Russia's support and consent," Babacan told reporters en route
to Marseilles to attend a Euro-Mediterranean meeting late on Monday
Babacan, however, added that agreement can't be achieved with Turkey
and the U.S. either.
"Steps taken by Turkey since September 2007 at various levels to
contribute to the resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and
steps taken by Russia on the same issue are complementary to each
other," the minister noted, Today's Zaman reports.
