    Iran envoy says peacekeeper deployment in breakaway Karabakh not to be effective


    Baku, 20 February: Mohsen Pak-A'in, Iranian ambassador in Baku said:
    The deployment of a peacekeeping mission in the [Azerbaijan's
    breakaway Nagornyy] Karabakh region is not an effective way of
    resolving the conflict. Moreover, this can cause new security problems
    in the region.

    In his interview with an IRNA reporter on Wednesday [20 February],
    Pak-A'in said: Regional countries can propose a resolution for the
    Karabakh issue. Extra-regional countries and organizations are not
    motivated enough to resolve the Karabakh issue. Solutions proposed by
    regional countries have often been constructive in similar conflicts.

    Iran's ambassador to Azerbaijan said: The deployment of peacekeepers
    for the purpose of resolving the Karabakh conflict is unlikely. It
    requires some conditions, which are not present now due to the
    disagreement between the two sides [Armenia and Azerbaijan].

    Pak-A'in said that the Islamic Republic of Iran was ready to help
    resolve the Karabakh conflict and added: In case there are the
    necessary requirements, we would like to help solve the problem.

    He said: The strategy of maintaining ties with both sides to the
    conflict provides Iran, which is the head of the Non-Aligned Movement,
    with an appropriate potential to help stabilize peace and security in
    the region.

    The Iranian ambassador to the Republic of Azerbaijan said: It has been
    years that major countries have been unable to resolve the problems of
    Palestine, Afghanistan, and Iraq. In cases such as Syria, foreign
    countries' interference has caused innocent people to be killed.
