/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Azerbaijan works for a shift in the format of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement talks, ARF Bureau’s Hay Dat and
Political Affairs Office Director Kiro Manoyan said.

"Adoption of the Azerbaijani resolution by the UN General Assembly
means that this country is planning to renounce the MG format and to
resolve the Karabakh problem by use of force. In my opinion, it’s a
disadvantageous scenario," Manoyan said.

For his part, political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan said
a format of ‘3+3+1’ can be applied. "This will be Armenia, NKR and
Azerbaijan plus three OSCE co-chair states plus Iran. Baku will hardly
agree, since it would like to have Turkey as a Minsk Group co-chair
However, being an interested party, Turkey has no right to join the
process," the Armenian expert said.
