The Karabakh conflict should be resolved with participation of
representatives of Azerbaijan and Nagorno Karabakh, said Monday in the
press conference Poland's Ambassador to Armenia Zdzislaw Rachinsky. He
pointed that he was on a visit to Nagorno Karabakh in 1990s and grasped
that it was impossible to settle the conflict without participation
of these two sides.
"Solutions linked to the conflict and the two nations' future should
be made by their representatives," stressed Rachinsky.
Referring to the Resolution 2216 approved by the European Parliament,
Ambassador Rachinsky said that Poland takes a neutral position over
the Karabakh issues and accepts the formula that goes with the norms
of the international community - there should be a peaceful settlement
to the conflict insuring the territorial integrity and right of people
to self-determination.
When asked by Aysor about priority of territorial integrity or right of
people to self-determination - Ambassador said that "all the European
countries were trapped in this issue." Rachinsky pointed that the
territorial integrity and the right of people to self-determination
are contrary to each other. He said that when Poland recognized
the independence of Kosovo there were certain public views that the
recognition would become a precedent to settlement to other conflicts.
