Change of Karabakh conflict negotiation format possible with consent of two parties: Russian MFA
As OSCE co-chairing country Russia has many times spoken about the format of Karabakh conflict negotiations which may be changed on the basis of consent of the parties, spokesperson for Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova said at a briefing today.
“If at a certain phase the parties come to agreement over Nagorno Karabakh’s participation in the negotiations, it will be the decision of the parties. We will respect it. It is not only our position but the position of the other members of the Minsk Group,” she said.
Zakharova called on the parties to pay attention to the recent statement of the OSCE Minsk Group which says that “Russia’s, USA’s and France’s approaches over this issue are quite clearly reflected.”
