The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and situation in the Caucasus is one
of the key issues on OSCE PA agenda, president of OSCE parliamentary
assembly Petros Efthymiou said in an interview with Azerbaijani APA
news agency.
He stressed that the OSCE Minsk Group has been working to facilitate
dialogue on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict for almost a decade, while
courage and political will from all sides is needed to take the steps
necessary to reach a lasting resolution.
"The main role of the Parliamentary Assembly is to help build
confidence through parliamentary dialogue. At its best, an improved
relationship at this level can help forge better relationships at
the government level," he told APA.
Efthymiou noted that keeping Karabakah peace process and situation
in the Caucasus high on the OSCE agenda is background for his visit
to the South Caucasus.
"As you know, the former Special Representative Goran Lennmarker
left politics, and now I seek to follow the situation as closely as
possible in my capacity as President of the Assembly," he added.
