Karabakh conflict settlement should remain within OSCE MG format

PanARMENIAN.Net - Resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict should remain in the format of the OSCE Minsk Group, acting head of the RA MFA media relations division Tigran Balayan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.



"Official Yerevan strongly opposes any attempt to transfer discussion of the Karabakh issue to the UN. Armenia has repeatedly stated that transfer of talks to other instances will not contribute to resolution of the conflict. The MG Co-chairs are of the same opinion," Mr Balayan said.



"Azerbaijan can make use of domestic situation in Armenia and the resolution it issued lately proves these intentions," he quoted Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian and added, "Armenia will take steps to foil the measure in the UN."



Azerbaijan has introduced in the UN General Assembly a draft resolution urging "to confirm Azerbaijan's title to Nagorno Karabakh."



"The General Assembly asserts that no state should recognize as legal the situation that emerged as result of seizure of Azerbaijan's territories or be conducive to this situation," the resolution says.
