"Turkey needs to create conditions to promote dialogue with Azerbaijan
and Armenia"
"If we cannot line up all of the conditions and solve the conflict,
then the next best thing we can do is to manage the problem so it
does not grow worse"
Baku. Habil Suleymanzadeh - APA. "Turkey could play an important role
in the decades-long conflict in the disputed area of Nagorno-Karabakh",
said OSCE Secretary General Lamberto Zannier in his interview with
"Today's Zaman" newspaper, APA reports.
Calling Turkey as an important player of the region, Zannier said
that Ankara had a political contribution to offer. Touching on the
negotiations held under the auspices of the OSCE, he said that the
progress was not happening: "I am stating a fact - the progress is
not happening. Something is missing".
Zannier said that Turkey's involvement in Karabakh negotiations need
not be an official one: "I am not talking about a formal role in the
negotiations, but in real terms. Turkey is bordering both countries
involved in the conflict. Turkey needs to create conditions to promote
dialogue on both sides".
Touching on the OSCE's efforts for settlement of Karabakh conflict,
Zannier said that he didn't accept some sounded critics. According
to him, the callings to nad over the settlement issues of Nagorno
Karabakh and other conflicts to the other organizations would not
settle the conflicts: "The problem is the substance of the issue. We
are trying to create the necessary conditions in the meantime. We
are trying to manage the situation on the ground, but the situation
becomes problematic in security term".
OSCE official said that if we cannot line up all of the conditions
and solve the conflict, then the next best thing we can do is to
manage the problem so it does not grow worse.
