RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan received the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs Robert Bradtke, Igor Popov, Jacques Faure and the Personal
Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk who
have arrived in Yerevan within the frames of a regional visit.
Edward Nalbandyan, considering the co-chairs' visit to Yerevan on the
day of the 18th anniversary of establishing a ceasefire in the zone of
the Karabakh conflict to be symbolic, has said that after the
ceasefire was established, the parties have had an opportunity for
several times during the past years to come closer to the settlement
of the problem but each time Azerbaijan has made a step back not
allowing to reach agreements.
`During these years Azerbaijan could not stand above the temptation to
settle the issue by use of force and instead preparing its people for
peace continues its military rhetoric, provocations on the contact
line, acquisition of armament of large volumes, which hinders the
settlement process and threatens the fragile situation in the region,'
minister Nalbandyan has added.
During the talk they touched upon the implementation of the agreements
reflected in the joint statement of the Russian, Armenian and
Azerbaijani presidents issued on January 23 in Sochi, particularly the
establishment of an investigation mechanism.
