Ban Ki-moon: UN ready to contribute to peaceful settlement of Karabakh conflict

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said that he supports peaceful settlement of all conflicts, including the Karabakh issue.

“The OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs are performing their mission and the United Nations can make its contribution to resolution of the conflict,” he said.

“We are also inspired by the recently held Armenian-Turkish dialogue,” UN Secretary-General added.

On October 18, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon arrived in Strasbourg, France, where he will address the Council of Europe on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the European Convention on Human Rights.
