Edward Nalbandian: despite Astrakhan and Astana statements, Baku continues its destructive policy

Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said that the OSCE summit in Astana was an important event for resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

Addressing a meeting organized by Club de Madrid и FRIDE (Foundation of International Relations and Foreign Dialogue), Minister Nalbandian emphasized that the statement adopted in Astana reiterates the impossibility of use of force.

“The heads of state once again said that all principles of conflict settlement should be applied as a whole. However, despite this, Baku continues its destructive policy. It was also surprising that several hours later after the adoption of the resolution Azerbaijan objected to its inclusion into the summit’s resulting document,” he said.
