Interfax

The EU said any referendums on the status of Nagorno-Karabakh would
be premature.
Any voting on the status of Nagorno-Karabakh can only take place
after a long process and now we need to agree on the principles of
settlement to create guarantees for all parties, European Union Special
Representative for the South Caucasus Peter Semneby told Interfax.
Semneby recalled that the settlement principles were voiced by the
co-chairmen of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe
Minsk Group (which comprises Russia, France, and the U.S.), which
he said is an excellent foundation for settling the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict, and said the EU is calling on both parties (Azerbaijan and
Armenia) to follow it.
Semneby also admitted that the process for normalizing Turkish-
Armenian relations is impacting the Nagorno-Karabakh settlement as
it influences the atmosphere of trust.
