YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 10, NOYAN TAPAN. Issues regarding the Nagorno
Karabakh settlement process, Armenian-Turkish political dialogue,
military-political developments in the South Caucasian region,
as well as EU Eastern Partnership were discussed at the February 10
meeting of RA President Serzh Sargsyan and OSCE PA President's Special
Representative for the Nagorno Karabakh conflict Goran Lennmarker.
S. Sargsyan attached importance to OSCE's invaluable role in the
issue of retaining the peace lasting for nearly 15 years and OSCE
Minsk Group's negotiations efforts aimed at problem settlement, as
well as cooperation with OSCE in the direction of deepening democratic
processes in Armenia.
The interlocutors emphasized that the 2008 August events once more
confirm the inadmissibility of a military way of solving current
conflicts considering such a mentality "dangerous and having no
prospects." S. Sargsyan once more stressed that Armenia expects
proper international structures' response on unprecedented rise of
some regional countries' military potential with violation of the
international legal-contractual sphere and the bellicose statements
voiced by them.
G. Lennmarker positively assessed the Nagorno Karabakh settlement
negotiations process and Armenian authorities' efforts to normalize
the Armenian-Turkish relations. The interlocutors recorded that the
best way to ensure cooperation and peace in the region is dialogue
and cooperation.
According to the report of the RA President's Press Office, during the
meeting the interlocutors also touched upon the Eastern Partnership
initiative. S. Sargsyan attached importance to Armenia's involvement
in that initiative.
