Nagorno-Karabakh settlement to be in focus in Brussels
22 July 2014, 13:17 (GMT+05:00)
U.S. co-chairman of OSCE Minsk Group James Warlick will meet with
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov and Armenian minister
Edward Nalbandian in Brussels on July 22. Warlick made this statement
on his official Twitter page.
"I just arrived in Brussels to meet the Foreign Ministers of Armenia
and Azerbaijan to discuss Nagorno-Karabakh peace," Warlick said. "We
seek a negotiated settlement."
The foreign ministers of the two countries are taking part in the
meeting of foreign ministers of the EU and the Eastern Partnership
countries.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan.
As a result of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied
20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and
seven surrounding districts.
The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs
of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the U.S. are currently
holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented four U.N. Security Council resolutions
on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
