BAKU DISPLEASED WITH BERNARD FASSIER
- The statements by the OSCE Minsk Group French Co-chair Bernard Fassier “contradict the Moscow declaration,” Khazar Ibrahim, a spokesman of the Azeri Foreign Ministry, said when commenting on Amb. Fassier’s statement about the necessity to engage Nagorno Karabakh in talks. “These statements are absolutely incorrect, because there are Armenian and Azeri communities of Nagorno Karabakh,” Ibrahim claimed, Day.az reports. The OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs are perfectly aware of the position of Nagorno Karabakh authorities, French mediators Bernard Fassier said in Yerevan earlier this week. “We are frequent visitors to Stepanakert and it would be incorrect to say that NK is completely excluded from the negotiation process. The people of Karabakh are engaged in talks in a way Representatives of Nagorno Karabakh will be at bargaining table sooner or later,” he said.
