OSCE is still being used as a platform where unilateral and politicized approaches are pushed forward regarding to the well-known ''frozen'' conflicts, which do not have anything in common with the real efforts to reach a lasting solution for them. This announcement was made by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Brussels during his speech at OSCE Foreign Ministers' Counsel session. In his words, experience confirms: such actions only result in growth of tension and distrust, throw back the solution of conflicts. We should not substitute the necessity to fulfill commitments assumed by the parties with certain reductive ideas. ''We always must follow basic principles of regional conflict solution. Among those are respect of Helsinki Final Act, achievement to agreements by conflicting parties, unconditional taking into account the position of both sides, inadmissibility of hostilities, careful attitude to the existing negotiation and peacekeeping formats, step-by-step approach to the solution, which supposes priorities on confidence-building measures and establishing dialog between sides; care for the people in conflict zones not to feel isolated'', pointed out Sergey Lavrov, Russian FA Ministry press office reports.
