Nagorno-Karabakh, OSCE Misnk Group
On November 14 OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs Igor Popov, Jacques Faure
and James Warlick and the Personal Representative of the OSCE
Chairman-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk addressed the OSCE permanent
Council.
The Minsk Group Co-Chairs presented the work done in 2013 towards the
peaceful settlement of the Karabakh conflict. They reiterated the
position of the co-chairing countries that there is no alternative to
the peaceful settlement of the issue. They attached importance to the
forthcoming meeting of the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan later
this month, noting that it could give new impetus to the negotiation
process.
Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk presented the activity of his office,
focusing particularly on the monitoring of the line of contact between
the armed forces of Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan and the
Armenian-Azerbaijani border, as well as the confidence-building
measures.
Addressing the Permanent Council, the Head of the Armenian mission to
the OSCE, Ambassador Arman Kirakosyan highly appreciated the Minsk
Group Co-Chairs' efforts targeted at the peaceful settlement of the
Karabakh conflict.
The Armenian side attached importance to the implementation of the
agreements reached by the joint declaration of the Presidents of
Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijan in Sochi on January 23, 2012 and
underlined that the Basic Principles should be viewed as a whole.
Ambassador Kirakosyan stressed the importance of creation of a
mechanism for investigation of border accidents envisaged by the joint
declaration, which would contribute to the reinforcement of the
ceasefire regime and create favorable conditions for progress in the
negotiation process.
Arman Kirakosyan reiterated Armenia's position that the Nagorno
Karabakh issue should be solved exceptionally in a peaceful way on the
basis of the principles of international law, also as the statements
adopted by the Presidents of the co-chairing countries in l'Aquilla,
Muskoka, Deauville, Los Cabos and Enniskillen and the statements
adopted within the framework of OSCE ministerial conferences in
Helsinki, Athens, Almaty, Vilnius and Dublin.
