Tigran Torosian displeased with OSCE MG Co-chairs' position

PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian parliament speaker Tigran Torosian expressed discontent with the activity of OSCE Minsk Group U.S. Co-chair Matthew Bryza.



"I am displeased with the position of the Co-chairs, especially one of them," Mr Torosian said when replying to the MPs' questions during the discussions on Karabakh. "In one of my interviews I said that the Co-chair I am speaking about is Matthew Bryza," he added.



"The MG format is expedient. However, the tasks it deals with should not have the shape of blackmail, as Azerbaijan prefers," the speaker said. "This blackmail affected the Co-chairs who took up statements regarding Azerbaijan's territorial integrity."



"If you ask them, they would say that it's the principle of self-determination underlying the settlement process. But their recent statements create false illusions and provoke hostility among the Azeri population," he added.



"Unfortunately, Azerbaijan's information attacks are not properly rebuffed by Armenia. The talks should be secret but the publics should be furnished precise information about the processes underway," Mr Torosian resumed, Novosti Armenia reports.
