The Consortium Initiative offers to replace OSCE MG by NGOs from conflicting countries?November 3, 2008 - 12:22 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Representatives of Nagorno Karabakh's non-governmental organizations met in Brussels with Dennis Sammut, Executive Director of LINKS and Director of the Political Strand of the Consortium Initiative, in the framework of the second Armenian-Azeri "European integration process as a possible mechanism of Karabakh conflict transformation" public forum initiated by International Alert from October 27 to 30. "The publics should be aware of the negotiation process. I believe that the Armenian and Azeri communities of Nagorno Karabakh should join talks," Mr Summut said. However, in the words of Irina Grigoryan, director of Stepanakert-based Institute of Public Diplomacy, the initiative is unreal. "Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan should also join the process if the Azeri community of Karabakh is engaged," she told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
