There is an international format – the OSCE Minsk Group – for the Karabakh conflict settlement, and this format cannot be subjected to correction, Atanesyan told a press conference in Yerevan, answering a question of a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

PanARMENIAN.Net reported earlier that the resolution, which most likely will be discussed by the Lithuanian parliament in March 2011, refers to the principles of territorial integrity, non-use of force during conflicts resolution and human rights. The document cites the European Parliament’s 2010 resolution on Karabakh that has caused indignation in Armenia.
