PanARMENIAN.Net – Despite all mediatory efforts, Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement depends on the political will of the parties
involved, British ambassador to Armenia said.

“Fort the past four years we have witnessed less progress than we
would like to,” Charles Lonsdale told a press conference in Yerevan.

According to him, under existing conditions, boosting confidence
among civil society members would also help progress in addition to
signing a peace agreement between the sides.

“We are fighting the stereotypes regarding the Karabakh issue among
youth and civil society,” Mr. Lonsdale said.

In conclusion, the ambassador noted establishment of peace and
stability in the South Caucasus as a priority for UK’s foreign
policy course.
