Armenia is not going to raise the Karabakh problem during its Council
of Europe presidency, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian
said at today's hearings in Parliament.
He believes that the Council of Europe is not the format to discuss
the Karabakh conflict because the Karabakh peace process is going
on within the frames of OSCE Minsk Group. "A decision to set up a
PACE Committee to discuss the Karabakh conflict was made as early as
2005, but the further developments demonstrated the inexpediency of
the given approach. We do not think it is an effective way. This has
been repeatedly spoken about, and the OSCE MG co-chairs also share
this viewpoint", Nalbandian said.
To recall, on May 16 Armenia will assume the CoE Committee of Ministers
presidency. Armenia's presidency of the CoE Committee of Ministers
will follow Andorra's presidency.
