The OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs have led Nagorno-Karabakh talks to
a deadlock by presenting the renewed version of Madrid Principles,
Nagorno-Karabakh former Defense Minister Samvel Babayan told reporters
today.
"It’s more than clear for them that the Armenian party will not
approve it," he said.
"They have got well aware of the views of the parties for 16 years
and they shouldn’t have presented such a document," Babayan said.
According to him, the mediators should assume as judges by deciding
on what is right and what is wrong to make appropriate conclusions
and find clear solutions. Babayan thinks the mediators’ disposition
to have the "parties agree in between and we’ll support them" is wrong.
If the parties can agree, why on earth do they need mediators?: the
former minister wondered highlighting that it’s been quite long since
parties could not have dialogue.
