Russia, U.S. insincere in Karabakh settlement efforts: Turkish Minister

Turkish Minister on EU Affairs accused the OSCE Minsk Group and international players of lack of sincerity in their efforts to settle the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, APA reported.

“If members of Minsk Group, the U.S. and Russia really wanted a solution, the Karabakh conflict would have already been settled”, Mevlut Chavushoglu said.

Chavushoglu noted that the OSCE influence in the Ukraine crisis should be discussed: “On one hand, it’s important to prevent conflicts, eliminate existing conflicts, on the other hand, it’s essential to solve frozen conflicts to avoid further complications."

According to him, today's crisis in Ukraine is a consequence of other unsettled conflicts.

"Frozen conflicts are a threat to the whole Europe. In order to solve these problems, we need to behave sincerely and objectively," he said.
