YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 11, ARMENPRESS: PACE's Nagorno Karabakh Subcommittee
did not display productivity during its previous activity in regard
to registering progress in the negotiation process of the NK issue
regulation, Armenian Foreign Affairs Minister Edward Nalbandyan said
today at a meeting with journalists.
Referring to the question why Azerbaijan was actively interested in
resuming of the works of that subcommittee, Mr. Nalbandyan stressed
that it proves once more that Azerbaijan is more interested in moving
the discussion of the Karabakh issue to other formats and not to go
on with the negotiations in the same format, which has been existing
for many years, which is the co-presidency of the OSCE Minsk group.
"Azerbaijan does not wish to settle the conflict by means of the
co-chairs, and tries to take the inner propaganda to the international
level, to raise noise over the conflict, and not to be engaged in
the concrete solution of the issue," the Minister pointed out. "In
this regard our position was the same that was expressed by our
parliamentarians at the PACE and by the Armenian Foreign Affairs
Minister," Mr. Nalbandyan stressed.
