UN OFFICIAL SAYS DIALOGUE ONLY SOLUTION TO KARABAKH CONFLICT
October 8, 2013 - 13:54 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - The OSCE Minsk Group that was created to find a
solution to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict has not led to a desired
result yet, UN Resident Coordinator in Azerbaijan said.
"From the UN perspective, we really hope that solution can be found
very soon, and of course, key partners are helping conflicting
countries to come to an agreement. The UN doesn't have a mandate to
make the discussion which is being held by the OSCE's Minsk Group. I
have no mandate to implement something by myself but I hope that the
countries come together to find a solution and foremost from the UN
we believe in dialogue," Antonius Broek said in an interview with
Azerbaijan Press Agency (APA).
"Only dialogue is a solution and we don't want any form of conflict
again and I am confident that this is not a wish of the partners or
any conflicting countries involved. There had been many internally
displaced persons and lots of people suffered 20 years ago. The
UN helped in addressing the humanitarian issues, so as soon as the
agreement has been reached the UN will be immediately ready to work
with the countries involved and the partners on the implementing
of the programs for the humanitarian assistance. But I'd say more
important is to assist in rebuilding life of people and fostering
understanding and reconciliation among the people involved. I really
hope that the solution can be found very soon for the benefit of
anyone living in the region and especially to the people directly
affected by the conflict," he said.
