Armenia
YEREVAN. - French Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Bernard Fassier
considers that resumption of CoE sub-committee on Karabakh was a
personal initiative of PACE President Mevlut Cavusoglu.
In his letter sent to member of the Armenian delegation to PACE Naira
Zohrabyan, Fassier commented on resumption of sub-committee on Karabakh
due to actions of Azerbaijani-Turkish duo.
The Armenian MP said that Fassier's letter in particular mentions
that he takes into account concerns that there is a threat that
sub-committee's activities may interfere with peace process carried
out by the OSCE Minsk Group.
"Restoration of subcommittee in 2011 is a personal initiative of PACE
President Mevlut Cavusoglu and is only a formal decision pursuing
more political than practical goals," he wrote to Armenian MP. "Let
me remind you of the commitments of France, Russia and the U.S. to
be with the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan to help them reach a
balanced decision on Karabakh conflict based on negotiations. Only a
peace process, acceptable to all sides will enable achieve a political
solution to this conflict through negotiation."
Zohrabyan stressed that Fassier notes it was personal initiative of
Cavusoglu which once again proves assertions of the Armenian delegation
voiced in PACE.
"The reasons why Cavusoglu was interested in sub-committee's work
were clear for us. He seeks adoption of anti-Armenian resolution
which will be necessary to be fulfilled," he added.
