The OSCE Parliamentary Assembly delegation with president Joao
Soares and Special Representative on Nagorno-Karabakh and Special
Envoy on Georgia Goran Lennmarker on the head will hold talks with
Azerbaijani officials on Monday, focusing on items of cooperation
between Azerbaijan's administration and OSCE.
Within the framework of the working visits to the region of the South
Caucasus, the OSCE delegation is reported has arrived in Azerbaijani
capital and will meet with country's President Ilham Aliev and
Parliament's Speaker Oktai Asadov. Ahead of the visit to Azerbaijan,
which is reported to end on March 16, delegates had paid a visit to
Armenia and Georgia.
It's worth mentioning that these visits are the first ones, paid by
Joao Soares at the post of OSCE PA president. The agenda for talks
with authorities of the three countries are the situation in Georgia
after war and the Karabakh conflict, said in the statement, released
on the official pages of the organisation.
The Nagorno-Karabakh (armed) conflict broke out back in 1991, when,
subsequent to the demand for self-determination of the Nagorno-Karabakh
people, Azerbaijani authorities attempted to resolve the issue
through ethnic cleansings, carried out by Soviet security forces
(KGB special units) under the pretext of the implementation of the
passport regime and by launching of large-scale military operations,
which left thousands dead and caused considerable material damage.
A cease-fire agreement was established in 1994. Negotiations on the
settlement of the conflict are being conducted under the mediation
of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen (Russia, USA, and France) and on
the basis of their Madrid Document, presented in November, 2007.
Azerbaijan hasn't yet implemented the 4 resolutions of the UN
Security Council adopted in 1993, by continuing to provoke arms race
in the region and openly violating on of the basic principles of the
international law non-use of force or threat of force.
