YEREVAN.- EU opposes isolation of the Nagorno-Karabakh, said EU
Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the Crisis in
Georgia Philippe Lefort.
The envoy believes communication is better than isolation and it is
wrong to put preconditions for visiting the region. Lefort recalled
that he, unlike Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, has no mandate to
visit Nagorno-Karabakh. His trip depends on "good will of the sides".
"We are working on it," the EU official stressed saying he wants to
visit Karabakh but has no idea when it can become possible.
All visits by foreign delegations are painfully perceived by
Azerbaijan. Those who dare travel to Nagorno-Karabakh are immediately
included in the blacklist by official Baku.
