Kazakhstan will be a ‘fair broker’ in Karabakh process


During its chairmanship in the OSCE, Kazakhstan will try not to spoil relations with Azerbaijan and Armenia, chairman of European Integration NGO said.

“Astana pledged to be a ‘fair broker’ in Karabakh process,” Karen Bekaryan told a news conference in Yerevan.

“Kazakhstan, as a CSTO member, will maintain good relations with Armenia, also a member of the Organization. However, it will also feel a religious solidarity with Azerbaijan,” he said. “I suppose, Kazakhstan will work to strengthen positions of the OSCE Minsk Group, but not more.”
