KAZIMIROV: «PRAGUE PROCESS FINE NAME FOR RARE MEETINGS OF TWO FMs»

PanARMENIAN.Net - «Terms do not alter the essence of the problem. Prague process is a fine name, just like the Minsk Group which is called that way in spite it has never been to Minsk, You may call this process the way you wish. You may call it a «Mozambique process» if you want, stated former Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Vladimir Kazimirov, Day.az reported. "Touching upon the Prague process I can say that several meetings were really held in Prague, then - in Frankfurt, London. It is already evident now that the attractive label of the "Prague process" is invented by the parties to calm down the domestic audience. Meanwhile, there are merely rare meetings of two Foreign Ministers with participation of the OSCE MG Co-Chairs, who are per se commissioned to hold talks between all parties to conflict as soon as possible," the Russian diplomat remarked. In his words, the Minsk process never brought the negotiating parties to an OSCE conference on Nagorno Karabakh. It is not clear what the "Prague" process will bring to yet. It is not ruled out that another capital will appear, thus marking the next stage of the endless procession, he noted. «Success attained during the settlement process is not that of the MG. The cease-fire, which is maintained during 11 years is the exclusive achievement of Russia. Just owing to Russia the agreement on the cease-fire was made in Bishkek in spite of some obstacles some MG partners put on our way,» Kazimirov summed up.
