French envoy: high time Karabakh conflict sides forgot hatred of past
PanARMENIAN.Net - Since 1994, France has showed persistent, firm and
resolute commitment to advancing the Azerbaijani-Armenian talks on
Nagorno Karabakh process, France ambassador to Baku said.
"France has repeatedly said that Karabakh conflict has no military
solution: the parties must commit themselves to peaceful resolution
of the problem, based on principles of the UN Charter and Helsinki
Final Act," Pascal Meunier said.
As the envoy further noted, the conflict sparks serious concerns.
"Today my message to the people of Azerbaijan and Armenia is as
follows: think about your children and grandchildren, and let them
not feel the pain that you went through. Throughout the history,
also in the near past, Azerbaijanis and Armenians lived together in
peace and contributed to each other's prosperity. It is high time
they forgot the conflict of opinion and hatred of the past. France's
co-chairmanship in Minsk Group is making active contribution to
the development of innovative ideas to later present them to the
parties of conflict, including development of humanitarian contacts,
formation of mechanism for investigating the ceasefire violation cases
and preservation of historical and cultural monuments among them. Since
President Hollande assumed power, France has arranged three meetings
at the ministerial level, with the two of them held in Paris. The
fourth one is in the course of preparation. We, together with other
co-chairs of Minsk Group, aim to help revive the dialogue between
Azerbaijan and Armenia," News.Az quoted the French envoy as saying.
