Semneby: Time to seriously deal with issue to sign agreement on Karabakh

PanARMENIAN.Net - Now Azerbaijan and Armenia must work with their societies more active for signing a peace treaty, EU's Special Representative for South Caucasus Peter Semneby stated. He thinks that much can be done both by the Armenian and Azeri sides concerning the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Commenting on OSCE PA President Goran Lennmarker's statement that after parliamentarian elections in Armenia a peace treaty can be signed on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, Peter Semneby stressed that it demands courage from both parties.



"Almost two decades after the rise of the conflict it's time for the sides to seriously deal with the issue to sign a peace agreement. We hope, basing on those principles and ideas that we offered last year and the last meeting between Presidents I. Aliev and R. Kocharian in Minsk it will be possible to reach an agreement,' Peter Semneby stated, "Trend" reports.
