OSCE’s chair Lithuania actively looking to resolve frozen conflicts

PanARMENIAN.Net - Lithuania, which is presiding over the OSCE, is making active efforts to find solutions to frozen conflicts in the post-Soviet space, but the results will be visible later, Adviser to the Lithuanian President Darius Semaska said in an interview with the Ziniu radijas radio station.

He also stressed OSCE Special Envoy on Conflicts Giedrius Cekuolis’ remarks that "at least a one-millimetre advancement" would be a major achievement.

"I wouldn’t like to give a premature assessment whether we moved forward for one millimetre or not, but active efforts are being made," the Baltic Daily quoted Semaska as saying.

"The discussions are open, and our minister is trying to persuade the conflict sides to have an open dialogue and increase confidence," Semaska said.

Lithuanian Foreign Minister Audronius Azubalis is on a visit to Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia this week, where he will discuss resolving "frozen" conflicts in the South Caucasus, Trend News reported.
