Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian on Thursday, in Munich, met with the Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Igor Popov (Russia), James Warlick (United States) and Pierre Andrieu (France), and Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk, the press service of the Armenian Foreign Ministry reported.

The sides continued the discussions on the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process. 

Edward Nalbandian drew the Co-Chairs’ attention to the increased violations of ceasefire and subversive attacks on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border and Karabakh-Azerbaijan Line of Contact, stressing that Azerbaijani forces violated ceasefire more than 3,000 times during the past weeks, leading to human losses, including deaths of civilians. 

“The Azerbaijani leadership blatantly disregards the international community’s targeted calls for ceasing tension, and with its adventurist policy and provocative actions further escalates the situation and undermines the peace process,” Nalbandian said. 

He reaffirmed that Armenia will continue the joint efforts with the Minsk Group co-chair countries aimed at exclusively peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
