ArmInfo. NATO supports the OSCE Minsk Group in its mediation efforts
for peaceful settlement of the Nagorny Karabakh conflict, Robert
Simmons NATO Secretary General's Special Representative for the
Caucasus and Central Asia told ArmInfo when commenting on NATO's stance
on the Karabakh conflict and the statement by Azerbaijani officials
warning NATO PA representatives of threat of war in Nagorny Karabakh.
Robert Simmons said NATO believes that war is not a solution to
the situation.
To recall, Azerbaijani officials during their meeting with NATO PA
representatives warned that "Azerbaijan's only alternative to solve
Nagorno-Karabakh would be to use military force, as all other ways to
solve the issue peacefully have been exploited." In a similar vein,
Defense Minister Safar Abiyev said that Azerbaijan cannot wait much
longer for diplomacy to work. "Particularly the young generation among
Azerbaijanis is loosing its temper. If Armenia decided to attack
Azerbaijan's energy production facilities, Azerbaijan would strike
Armenia's nuclear facility," he said.
