Basel/04.12.14/Turan: In an interview with reporters in the press
center of the OSCE Ministerial Council in Basel the US co-chair of
OSCE Minsk Group on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, James Warlick,
called "contradictory moves" the events around Nagorno-Karabakh in
the past year. "Over that year, we have witnessed significant progress
in the negotiation process - Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents met
three times and made efforts to ensure lasting dialogue to resolve the
conflict. But we, however, have witnessed a step back," said Warlick.
The American co-chair called a step back escalation of tensions at
the end of July at the line of contact, as well as the destruction of
the Armenian military helicopter that caused casualties on both sides.
In this situation, Jaime Warlick believes it important to continue the
bilateral meetings between the presidents format. "We, as co-chairs,
are ready to support the conduct of such meetings," he said, noting
the optimism of the Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia after the
Paris meeting.-0--
