OSCE assessment mission’s report biased, Karabakh MP says

March 26, 2011 | 20:02

The report of the OSCE field assessment mission is biased, Karabakh MP
Armen Sargsyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

According to him, mission’s task to conduct research only inside of
Nagorno-Karabakh and in the territories forming a security zone was
initially wrong. `There was no task to conduct mission in the
territories controlled by Azerbaijan (Shahumyan region, part of
Martakert and Martuni regions – ed.),’ he noted. Sargsyan considers
the mission, the aim of which is to find way to establish peace and
resolve Karabakh conflict, should not have one-sided approach.

The MP claimed they felt that the approach is biased from the
beginning and therefore opposed mission’s conduction.

On March 24, OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs presented the Executive
Summary of the report of Field Assessment Mission. The mediators
conducted a Field Assessment Mission to the seven territories
surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh (NK) from October 7-12, 2010.
