YEREVAN. - We cannot expect from the OSCE Minsk Group doing impossible
on Karabakh issue, sectary of Armenia's National Security Council
said.
Arthur Baghdasaryan emphasized that the mediators will never openly
criticize Azerbaijan.
"Of course, we are very concerned about the situation on the border,
and an adequate response from the international community. But the
role of the Minsk Group is not to condemn the actions of one of the
parties, but to create an atmosphere for negotiation between them. MG
will not openly and sharply criticize any of the parties. We can only
expect condemnation of the use of force or threat of force. Of course,
we would like to see tougher statements, but we have to be pragmatic,"
Baghdasaryan told reporters.
Nevertheless, he said Armenia must regularly draw attention of the
international partners to dirty tricks that official Baku is trying to
use in order to form favorable public opinion inside Azerbaijan.
