AZERI FM REJECTS NATO PARTICIPATION IN KARABAKH CONFLICT SETTLEMENT
It would be naïve to suppose, that the NATO will take part in the resolving of the regional conflicts such as the Nagorno-Karabakh one, Azerbaijani foreign minister Vilayat Guliyev stated in his interview to Zerkalo Baku newspaper. In his words, European organizations, including the NATO have a very cautious approach to the regional conflicts. "They are stating about their readiness to cooperation, however, considering the conflicts to be the internal affair of these states. At the same time they note that they have no mechanism for the settlement of the conflicts", - V. Guliyev said.
