Karen Bekaryan: adoption of serious document on Karabakh conflict settlement unlikely in AstanaNovember 2, 2010 - 16:35 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Chairman of European Integration NGO Karen Bekaryan said that adoption of a serious document on the Karabakh conflict settlement is unlikely in Astana. “Today, there is a statement of the Presidents of the OSCE Minsk Group’s Co-Chair countries made on July 10, 2009, in L’Aquila. The document reads that the Karabakh conflict should be settled based on three principles,” Bekaryan told a press conference, commenting on expectations from the upcoming OSCE summit in Astana. The expert believes that only a document once again confirming the OSCE Minsk Group’s commitment to the conflict resolution based on three principles will be signed in Astana, while Azerbaijan will silently agree to sign this document.
