    Ariel Cohen: `The US should strengthen efforts towards the settlement
    of Nagorno Karabakh conflict'


    Non-implementation of UN Security Council resolutions on Nagorno
    Karabakh discussed in Washington

    Baku-APA. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the first UN
    Security Council resolution on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, the
    Jamestown Foundation, one of the leading research centers of
    Washington, held an event entitled `The United Nations and the
    Armenia-Azerbaijan Conflict: Back to the Basics'. Azerbaijan's embassy
    in the US told APA that Azerbaijan's Deputy Permanent Representative
    to the United Nations Tofig Musayev and Senior Research Fellow of the
    Heritage Foundation Ariel Cohen made speeches at the event moderated
    by Chairman of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute Frederick Starr.

    Making a speech on the International Legal Relevance and Significance
    of the UN Security Council Resolutions, Tofig Musayev spoke about the
    importance of compliance with the norms and principles of the
    international law in terms of the maintenance of international peace
    and security. Musayev said the fact that the four resolutions of the
    UN Security Council demanding withdrawal of Armenian occupier troops
    from Azerbaijan have not been implemented is the main factor impeding
    the progress in the settlement of the conflict and also added that
    Armenia's non-constructive position in the negotiations has no
    international legal base.

    Analyzing the settlement of the conflict in the context of
    international forces, as well as regional realities, Senior Research
    Fellow of the Heritage Foundation Ariel Cohen noted that as one of the
    co-chairs of OSCE Minsk Group, the US needs to strengthen efforts
    towards this.

    In his turn, Chairman of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute Frederick
    Starr underlined the importance of new approaches for the restoration
    of stability in the region and said that the future of the region
    depends on mutual cooperation of each of the three countries.
