Davit Babayan: The time has come for the Minsk Group Co-Chair countries to issue targeted statements
Press secretary to the Artsakh President Davit Babayan says the joint statement by the Heads of Delegation of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair countries issued on December 8 is interesting and positive alike. In an interview with Panorama.am Babayan welcomed that the states have condemned the April war.
“It means the peaceful solution to the conflict is prioritized, and any scenario suggesting military means to resolve the problem means is rejected. It is important to see strong formulations in condemning the brutalities, barbarity,” Babayan said
In his words, Azerbaijan is apparently the addressee of those calls, yet the time has come to issue targeted statements.
“If those calls are not targeted, the perpetrator, that is Azerbaijan, will take advantage of that. This is especially relevant with all the facts provided by Armenia to the UN and the OSCE personal representative, different international organizations, including documented photos, footages, and other factual evidence,” press secretary to the Artsakh President explained.
Babayan also welcomed the meeting in the 3+2 format held in Hamburg, suggesting the discussion is a part of the peace process.
“Any meeting is important and positive as long as it serves as a part of the peace process. The Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement should be viewed in two dimensions. The first is the maintenance of the stability and peace in the region and the second is the resolution of the conflict itself. Since the parties have divergent positions with Azerbaijan increasing its fascist rhetoric and policy, it is too early to expect any progress in the settlement process from those meetings. Those discussions are valued in terms of keeping the peace and stability in the region,” Babayan concluded.
