Peter Semneby The EU is concerned over the recent incidents on
the front.
The statement came from EU Special Representative for the South
Caucasus Peter Semneby visiting Azerbaijan. The European diplomat also
refused to comment on the question of finding body of the deceased
Azerbaijani soldier in the Armenian side:
'We are concerned over the incidents on the front lines. A good
referral is needed to draw attention to peace talks. As for the body
of the Azerbaijani ensign, I would not want to comment on the details.
This is the OSCE's business, there are other humanitarian organizations
engaged in this issue. I will not comment on this issue, unless this
issue finds solution'.
The EU official said that these matters are the competence of the
OSCE and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).
'The OSCE carries out the observation mission and negotiations. ICRC is
also working on the issue. The EU, of course, adheres to international
rights and human rights. But I would like to repeat again that I do
not want to comment unless some details in this issue are settled.
Certainly, I would like to discuss the Karabakh issue. We hope that
the OSCE co-chairs will assist us in the investigation of this issue
and will give impetus to promote peacekeeping activities', said the
EU Special Representative for South Caucasus.
