Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian received the Co-Chairs of
the OSCE Minsk Group, Robert Bradtke, Igor Popov and Jacques Faure and
the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Andrzej
Kasprzyk.
Noting that the visit of the Co-Chairs to Yerevan on the day of the
18th anniversary of conclusion of the ceasefire agreement was
symbolic, Edward Nalbandian said ever since the establishment of
armistice the parties have had several opportunities to settle the
issue, but every time Azerbaijan has made a step backward, thus
creating obstacles for conclusion of agreements.
`Azerbaijan never managed to refuse from the temptation to solve the
issue through force, and continues its bellicose rhetoric, the
provocations at the line of contact, the purchase of armaments instead
of preparing its people for peace. This hampers the settlement process
and endangers the fragile situation in the region,' Edward Nalbandian
noted.
During the meeting reference was made to the implementation of the
provisions of the joint statement of the Presidents of Armenia,
Azerbaijan and Russia issued in Sochi on January 23, particularly the
creation of mechanisms for investigation of incidents at the line of
contact.
