Maximum efforts should be exerted to resolve conflicts in the South Caucasus, Kazakh Foreign Minister said.

“The conflicting sides should seek a compromise,” said Kanat Saudabayev, current OSCE Chairman-in-Office.

“As a country which holds the OSCE chairmanship, we have already done much for resolution of lingering conflicts in Nagorno Karabakh, Transnistria, Abkhazia and South Ossetia. However, these can’t be settled within a year,” he said, Rosbalt reports.
