«I have to mention with regret that Turkey appears to be a party of the Karabakh conflict,» the OSCE MG former Co-Chair stated.

Vladimir Kazimirov agrees with statements that Moscow has the key to solution of the Nagorno Karabakh problem.

One cannot even approach the stepwise settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict without reliable commitments of the parties to resist the temptation of using force.

One should not forget that the PACE decision is of recommendation nature and the parties to conflict contrived not to fulfill even UN SC compulsory resolutions, the diplomat noted.

"Considering that someone from the outside will put press and the problem will solve automatically is naive," V. Kazimirov emphasized.

Terms do not alter the essence of the problem. You may call it a «Mozambique process,» the diplomat stated.

The Armenian leader said that he is sure the ties between the Armenian and Russian peoples formed during centuries will further strengthen.

On Monday, the major German oppositional political force - the "Christian Democratic Union/Christian Social Union" has selected the candidate for the federal chancellor's post. In case of victory of the conservators in the upcoming pre-term parliamentary elections the government will be headed by the leader of the "Christian Democratic Union/Christian Social Union" Angela Merkel. The tough pronouncements of Miss Merkel towards Turkey have won the sympathy of Armenians, guaranteeing the support of the large Armenian community of Germany.
