As a member and former Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, Finland finds the escalation of the Karabakh conflict unfortunate and condemns all violence along the line of contact, Finland’s Foreign Minister Timo Soini said at a joint press conference with visiting Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian.
He urged the sides to respect the ceasefire. “We all know that there can be no military solution to this conflict, it must be solved in a political way,” the Minister said.
“Finland fully supports the current Co-Chairs – the United States, Russia and France, and all their mediating efforts,” Minister Soini said.
