Conflicts Cannot Be Settled Without Regard of Their Peculiarities

PanARMENIAN.Net - There are two polar viewpoints in politics. The first says that there is a common concept for the settlement of all the conflicts, the other says that each conflict is unique. Both disregard of peculiarities of each conflict and denial of common points are inadmissible, Russian Co-Chair of the OSCE MG for settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict in 1992-1996, Ambassador Vladimir Kazimirov stated in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net In his opinion, the truth lies in the middle, as usual. "There are solutions that can partially be used both here and there. There is a common point of Kosovo and Karabakh conflicts, i.e. collapse of a unified state, in this case the USSR and Yugoslavia; the desire of autonomies to live on their own. However, there are many different points between them as well, which cannot be left out when passing any agreements. Expression of will often prevails over the notion of territorial integrity," Kazimirov said.
