Azerbaijani Parliament has to make a decision on the suspension of
the OSCE Minsk group's efforts to find a settlement of the Nagorno
Karabakh Armenian Azerbaijani conflict, parliament's deputy Fazail
Aghamali stated at the first meeting of parliament's autumn session.
International organisations, including the OSCE Minsk group have double
standards on the issue of Ramil Safarov's release, Aghamali said.
"These organisations which are always turning a blind eye to the
crimes of Armenians against Azerbaijanis, exaggerate the issue of
release of the Azerbaijani officer who has already served a sufficient
sentence. The OSCE Minsk group has adopted an unfair position in
the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict," the deputy stated,
adding that the OSCE and a number of international organisations have
still not recognised Armenia as an aggressor state.
"During the past 20 years, the OSCE Minsk group has not made any
progress in the conflict settlement. This is why I suggest we should
end its efforts," Aghamali noted.
The OSCE Minsk group is a group of OSCE member states whose co-chairmen
are heading the process of a peaceful settlement of the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict. The purpose of OSCE Minsk group is to provide
a permanent forum for negotiations on a peaceful settlement of the
crises based on principles, responsibilities and OSCE statements.
The OSCE Minsk group co-chairmen are currently Jacques Faure (France),
Igor Popov (RF) and Robert Bradtke (USA).
They regularly visit the region to hold high level negotiations between
the parties. They also hold meetings with the chairman and other
members of the OSCE Minsk group to prepare a report on negotiations.
The OSCE Minsk group include Belarus, Germany, Italy, Switzerland,
Finland, Turkey as well as Armenia and Azerbaijan along with
co-chairmen states.
