Azerbaijan Should Not Try to Transfer Karabakh Issue to Another PlaneSeptember 14, 2006 - 18:30 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian considers inclusion of the issue on protracted conflicts in the territory of GUAM participant states in the UN General Assembly agenda "senseless expenditure of energy." "In spite of the UN GA General Committee turning down the issue, the GA decided to include it in the agenda by one vote more in favor of the proposal," Oskanian told journalists in Yerevan Thursday."We believe that it is necessary to focus on the Minsk process if we want to attain results. If there are other goals, Armenia will not enter those games," he underscored. There are serious proposals on the bargaining table today and "if Azerbaijan is serious on the talks, it should concentrate on the Minsk process and not try to transfer the issue to another plane. It will not do good," he said. Top stories The Armenian Defense Ministry has denied Azerbaijan's accusations of violating the ceasefire.
