Goran Lennmarker: 2007 to wind up Karabakh conflict
"The OSCE has been for a long time engaged in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement and one can't say the organization is inactive. We try to help two states to resolve the problem, promote the peaceful process while the Foreign Ministers should do the main job," OSCE PA President Goran Lennmarker said in Baku today. "I am an optimist and believe we will find a solution. Every year young people die from both sides. Some receive wounds and become invalids," Mr Lennmarker said. In his words, the existence of about 100 thousand of refugees proves the necessity of soonest settlement of the conflict. I think that year 2007 will wind up the conflict and we will find a decision acceptable for both states," the OSCE PA President said, reports Trend.
