/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The probability for the Council of Europe to
investigate the fact of fires in Nagorno Karabakh and adjacent
territories is very little, reported the CE Department for Political
Affairs. The source noted that the process is rather difficult.

"The matter is that the CE does not have an official stance
specifically on that issue, as the organization does not have a
technical and material basis for checking the reliability of the facts
presented. The Council of Europe has expressed its attitude, based
on conclusions of other reliable organizations, e.g. the OSCE, whose
experts visited territories, where the fires occurred. According to
the mission conclusions, the fires were a result of a natural calamity.

Unfortunately, we as an organization cannot either confirm or deny
this information. We merely trust to OSCE data. The OSCE has larger
capacities for doing that."
