/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The OSCE Minsk Group is dragging out resolution of
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, an Armenian expert said.
The intermediaries will not settle the conflict until they get a
right moment to settle it in their favor.
"During the past 20 years, the mediators were doing their best to
represent the conflict as a dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan,"
Alexander Manasyan , head of Academy of Political Research NGO,
told a news conference in Yerevan.
"The OSCE MG does not observe neutrality in talks. Periodically,
Co-chairs make statements which conflict with the negotiations
spirit. As result, these statements gradually change the essence and
type of the conflict," he said.
Manasyan also reminded that after the Budapest summit in 1994 the
sides have not signed any document saying that the negotiations must
be held only by Armenia and Azerbaijan only.
"Presently, consultations but not negotiations are being held,"
he said.
