Andrzej Kasprzyk: impossible to compare Kosovo and Karabakh conflicts
I consider that it is not possible to apply the same way of the settlement of the conflict, comparing historical situations of two nations. The Nagorno Karabakh and Kosovo conflicts cannot be compared. The mentalities and geographical locations differ. It is necessary to take it into account, said Personal Representative of OSCE Chairman-in-Office Andrzej Kasprzyk.

When commenting on the meeting of the Armenian and Azeri Defense Ministers last fall, Amb. Kasprzyk said, «Their meeting was very fruitful, and it covered the discussions on the ceasefire. This meeting influenced the situation in contact lines, after it no violation of ceasefire and incident in monitoring of contact lines recorded. Now I think there is no need for defense ministers to meet, but if they want I can assist this meeting,» reports APA.
