WESTERN COUNTRIES, IRAN AND TURKEY SHOULD MEDIATE KARABAKH SETTLEMENT, TURKISH EX-PRESIDENT SUPPOSES

PanARMENIAN.Net - The US, France, UK, Iran and Turkey should mediate the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. As reported by "Arminfo" agency, Turkish ex-president Suleiman Demirel told "Turkish Daily News" agency. In his words, these countries should assist the Armenian and Azeri governments in finding a compromise solution to settle the conflict. As noted by Demirel, if "the Armenian people had displayed an unbiased approach, the Armenian government would have recognized the conflict was imposed on them." At the same time, he noted, the Azeri government would have put pressure on those citizens, who could have expressed dissatisfaction with possible compromises by official Baku. Otherwise, peaceful settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is not possible, the Turkish ex-president noted. Meanwhile, he added the military solution of the conflict was not real.
