Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has urged international
organizations to get involved in the resolution of the Nagornyy
Karabakh conflict, MPA news agency reported on Tuesday 14 December.
Speaking at a meeting in Chatham House in London on 13 December, the
president said: “We have mediators in the persons of the OSCE and its
Minsk Group. However, this is not enough. Other international
organizations – the European Union, the Council of Europe and the UN –
can and should play a more active role.”
The agency quoted Ilham Aliyev as saying that the issue should be put
on the “permanent” agenda of international organizations as this will
help establish peace in the region.
The agency added that the president called for “a unified approach” to
ethnic conflicts in Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Dniestr and Nagornyy
Karabakh since all these conflicts are very similar.
