Goran Lenmarker in interview: `Good possibility' for solution on
Nagorno Karabkh
Baku, Fineko/abc.az. The OSCE Parliamentary Assembly's Special
Representative on Nagorno-Karabakh and Special Envoy for Georgia,
Goran Lenmarker, said that there is a `good possibility' for the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to be solved this year.
He made this statement in an interview for the OSCE PA web site on the
eve of the visit to the South Caucasus region.
`There is a good possibility for the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to be
solved this year, but the time is scarce and it is now critically
important to seize the opportunity,' Lenmarker emphasized.
Lenmarker's trip to the South Caucasus region includes visits to
Armenia 9-10 February, Georgia 10-12 February and Azerbaijan 12-14
February, where he will hold talks with the leaders in the
parliaments, governments, and with NGOs. The purpose of the visit is
also to discuss the situation in general in the three countries in the
Southern Caucasus, and particularly the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with
the Armenians and Azerbaijanis and the conflicts in South Ossetia and
Abkhazia with the Georgians. Goran Lenmarker expressed a hope that the
result will be positive signals that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is
on its way to a peaceful resolution.
Lenmarker was asked if he thinks the conflict can be solved in 2009.
`I think there is a good possibility for that. It is very much up to
the leadership of the two countries to take responsibility for
resolving it. We from the outside can support and help and also give
support after a solution. But it's the responsibility of two
countries, particularly the leadership and also the two parliaments to
actually reach a peaceful solution,' Lenmarker said.
