Karabakh: agreement on deployment of peacekeepers in security belt achieved?





26.05.2007 13:51 GMT+04:00

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ It’s premature to speak of full success in the Nagorno Karabakh peaceful process unless agreements on all provisions of the negotiation agenda are achieved, Azeri Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov told a news conference in Baku after a meeting with the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs.

“Territorial integrity of Azerbaijan cannot be questioned. Withdrawal of Armenian troops and return of refugees to their homes are discussed at the current stage of the talks,” he said.

“The sides achieved agreement on deployment of peacekeeping forces in the security zone. There is an opinion that the peacekeeping contingent should not include the states of the region and co-chair states of the OSCE Minsk Group,” the Azeri FM said.

The most important task is “to exclude resumption of hostilities”, according to Mr Mammadyarov. He said he will follow out diplomatic ways of resolution. “It all depends,” he added, Day.az reports.

This and the Armenian genocide claims are the only obstacles to peace with the Armenians. Although I don't expect them to stop their genocide accusations, at least we can be happy that one of the issues will be solved hopefully.

If this issue is solved. We'll open the border and start trading. It's gonna be a new era between two nations. Both sides will benefit from this positive progress.

AFAIK, over a million UN recognized Azeri refugees and more. I highly doubt Armenians will allow them to return. I hope i'm wrong.

Do you think it's wise we open our borders while Armenia doesn't recognize our official borders and territorial integrity?

Passing the border for trading will help them to realize where Turkish territory starts.

but if you rebuild that bridge you can then blow it up again as another "we'll show them"
