Edward Nalbandian on today’s imperative
Today, it is imperative to preclude the future reoccurrence of what happened in the beginning of April, said Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia, Edward Nalbandian at the EU Eastern Partnership and Visegrad Four Foreign Ministers’ Meeting.
“Today, it is imperative to ensure that the dangerous attempts on seeking military solution to the issue will be effectively curbed,” the Minister said, reports press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Edward Nalbandian also stressed that Azerbaijan has continued the violations, concentrating heavy weaponry and military forces along the entire Line of Contact with Nagorno-Karabakh, further increasing its warmongering and launching a provocative propaganda campaign on international arena trying to accuse the Armenian side in exactly what it is itself doing, thus preparing ground for new military attacks which can have far-reaching consequences for the whole region.
According to him, the implementation of the confidence building measures proposed by the Co-chairs, including the creation of the mechanism of investigation for the violations of the cease-fire and capacity enhancement of the team of the Personal representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office will serve their purpose.
“Such concrete steps could allow to restore the negotiation environment and continue the peace process,” said the Minister adding that Armenia will spare no efforts working together with the co-chair countries towards the exclusively peaceful resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
