Unlike Azerbaijan, Armenia has been consistently proving its
adherence to the principles of international law, in particular,
non-use of force, peoples' right for self-determination and
territorial integrity principle, Armenia's Foreign Minister, Edward
Nalbandian, said at the meeting of foreign ministers of the EU Eastern
Partnership countries, in Brussels on 22 July.
He expressed regret for non-availability of the political will in
Azerbaijan, reflected in declining of all the proposals made by the
intermediaries. "We fully agree to the necessity of preparing the
peoples to peace. Unfortunately, Azerbaijan goes the opposite way,
coming forward with militaristic and provocative statements,
propagating intolerance and hatred. This results in raising of tension
and worsening of the situation at the line of contact with Karabakh
and at the border to Armenia. We highly appreciate assistance of the
European Union and the efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group directed only
at peaceful resolving of the Karabakh conflict", - Nalbandian said.
To note, Catherine Ashton, the High Representative of the Union for
Foreign Affairs and Security Policy for the European Union, and Stepan
Fule, the European Commissioner for Enlargement and European
Neighbourhood Policy, took part in the meeting.
