Foreign minister of Lithuania:

5 April 2012

"Lithuania's position is clear and unchanged, it supports the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs, Lithuanian FM Audronius Azubalis said at a joint press conference with his Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian on Thursday in Yerevan.

He also added that the offers elaborated by the OSCE MG Co-Chairs are worth high appraisal. "The project is really a very good one, and we should support it. On the other hand, we support the solution to the issue within the UN Charter and the Helsinki Final Act," Azubalis said.

For his part, Foreign Minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandyan said that in Astana supported by her counterparts from France and Russia US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that all the principles for the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict settlement were involved in the package of documents and settlement of the conflict is possible only if all the elements of the package are observed. Nalbandyan said there could be no other approach as exclusion of any element will rule out settlement of the conflict. He also added that the positions of Armenia and the OSCE MG co-chair states fully coincide. As for Azerbaijan's statements, they just hinder settlement of the conflict, he said and added that they are simply the attempts to throw dust into the eyes of its own society.

A ground breaking meeting between the President of Turkiye, Recip Tayip Erdogan, and Greek Prime minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, on Monday (13 May) is being hailed as the dawn of a new era of peace in the Eastern Mediterranean. Mitsotakis was in Ankara as the guest of the Turkish leader. There are no unsolvable problems between Athens and Ankara, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said, as he and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis praised the state of relations between the two neighbors while pledging to further enhance bilateral ties. "We had a constructive and positive meeting and discussed problems in Türkiye-Greece relations; We will solve problems through dialogue," Erdoğan said at a joint news conference with Mitsotakis. Erdoğan said that Ankara and Athens are committed to resolving issues via "cordial dialogue, good neighborly ties, and international law" as outlined in last year's Athens Declaration on Friendly Relations and Good-Neighborliness. Improvement of bilateral relations with Türkiye is yielding concrete and positive results, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said "I can only begin by thanking you for the warm hospitality today in Ankara, it was a fourth meeting in the last 10 months, which I believe proves that the two neighbors can now establish this approach of mutual understanding, no longer as some exception, but as a productive normality that is not negated by the known differences in our positions," Mitsotakis said. He said bilateral relations have been progressing, as agreed by the parties, on three levels: political dialogue, positive agenda and confidence-building measures. "I believe that it is a positive development in a difficult time for international peace, but also for the broader stability in our region," the Greek leader said.
