PanARMENIAN.Net - OSCE Minsk Group efforts did not result in Nagorno
Karabakh conflict settlement, therefore the region countries,
particularly Iran, should get involved into the process, according to
Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani.
`Karabakh conflict should be resolved within regional formula,' said
Larijani during his July 1 meeting with Azerbaijani Parliament Speaker
Oqtay Asadov in Baku.
According to the Iranian Speaker, great states do not assist in
conflicts settlement.
`OSCE MG has been engaged in Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement for
many years, however it did not bring to any results so far,' he said.
In his turn, Asadov expressed confidence that Iran `will support
Azerbaijan in the conflict resolution and will back up official Baku's
stand in this issue within the framework of international
organizations.'
He stressed that neighboring countries should solve the regional
problems jointly, according to Interfax. Baku torpedoed the summit
between Russia, Azerbaijan and Armenia in Kazan on June 24 which
completed without an agreement on basic principles of Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement. `The countries' leaders registered mutual
understanding on a range of problems, the resolution of which boosts
creation of conditions for approving main principles. The meeting
participants considered the course of works carried out with the aim
of coordination of the project with basic principles,' according to
the statement. The Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan expressed
gratitude to the Russian, French and U.S. leaders, the OSCE Minsk
group co-chairs, for `their constant attention to Nagorno-Karabakh
problem' and highly praised personal efforts of the Russian President
in support of agreements.
Later on Minister of Foreign Affairs Edward Nalbanian noted that the
June 24 meeting was not a breakthrough, as Azerbaijan proved unready
to accept the final version of the basic principles suggested by the
OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs. Instead, the Azerbaijani leader attempted
to impose 10 new proposals, thus precluding the possibility of any
agreement on the issue,' he added.
