Status quo in the NK conflict unsustainable, EC President Donald Tusk says
“The EU continues to believe that the status quo is unsustainable; the conflict does not have a military solution and needs an early political settlement in accordance with international law. Preparing the respective populations for peace is an important step towards settlement, which we are ready to support,” President of the European Council Donald Tusk stated today in Brussels after talks held with Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan.
Donald Tusk added the EU fully supports the Minsk Group Co-Chairs and their proposals and encouraged by the recent contacts between the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
In the words of the EC President, EU is etermined to make the promise of the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement a reality. “The implementation of this agreement goes hand in hand with domestic reforms. The EU is ready to further support your reform process with enhanced technical and financial assistance. We agree with your strong emphasis on the fight against corruption and the rule of law reform,” said the president.
