YEREVAN.- The Armenian delegation has not received an official
notification that the Karabah peace process will be discussed at OSCE
Parliamentary Assembly's October session but is ready to any
developments, Armenian delegate Aram Safaryan told Armenian
News-NEWS.am.
His remark came after head of Azerbaijani delegation Bakhar Muradov
said the issues related to Karabakh peace process are included in the
agenda.
`As you know, at the annual session of the OSCE in Belgrade, the
chairman of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly, Petros Efthymiou said he
appoints Joao Soares special envoy to South Caucasus.
Mr. Soares, I think, prepared certain theses over the recent months
and he may take advantage of the session to discuss the Karabakh peace
process with Armenian and Azerbaijani delegations,' said Safaryan.
Head of Armenian delegation to OSCE PA considers that discussion
within the framework of the organization can be efficient only if the
official diplomacy - the presidents of two countries, ministries of
foreign affairs - have achieved tangible progress in the negotiation
process.
`I do not think that without progress, parliamentary diplomacy can be
useful,' he said expressing hope that Joao Soares will visit the
region in the near future.
The regular session of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly will be held in
Dubrovnik from 5 to 9 October.
