Armenia is against changing the current format of the negotiations for resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict within the OSCE Minsk Group. Edward Nalbandian, Foreign Minister of Armenia, made such statement when commenting on preparation of a PACE Report on NK in a press conference in Yerevan, Friday.
He recalled that the OSCE Minsk Group is the only body to have international mandate to mediate the conflict's resolution. "Azerbaijan with its efforts to change the format of the negotiations for resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict seeks to fail the negotiation process," Nalbandian said.
The minister believes that drafting and elaborating reports on Karabakh at other bodies cannot help making a progress in the negotiations and may have a reverse effect - something Azerbaijan is very much interested in. Nalbandian is sure that such actions may knock aside the peace negotiations.
