ЕС выступил в связи с опасениями по поводу ухудшения ситуации в зоне нагорно-карабахского конфликта

Европейский Союз высказал свою озабоченность по поводу ухудшения ситуации в зоне нагорно-карабахского конфликта, что уже привело к очередным жертвам.

В заявлении пресс-секретаря Европейской службы внешних действий, опубликованном в четверг днем (22 июня), в Брюсселе, говорится, что недавние нарушения прекращения огня являются наглядным напоминанием того, что статус-кво неустойчив и напомнил, что президенты Армении и Азербайджана неоднократно заявляли о прекращении огня и мирном урегулировании этого конфликта. В заявлении также сказано:

Европейский Союз ожидает деэскалации и сдержанности как на деле, так и на словах. Европейский Союз полностью поддерживает усилия сопредседателей Минской группы и присоединяется к их призыву от 19 июня к немедленному рассмотрению мер по снижению напряженности в зоне конфликта и на международной границе между Арменией и Азербайджаном, а также к возвращению сторон к переговорам по существу, добросовестно и с необходимой политической волей.

В течение последних нескольких дней обе стороны сообщали о случаях многочисленных нарушений режима прекращения огня на фоне озабоченности тем, что они могут привести к серьезным вспышкам насилия.

Azerbaijani members of thematic groups for dialogue with Armenians briefed, as work on five final reports continues in earnest

On Friday, (26 September) there was another amazing event in the process of Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue, this time in Baku. Around twenty five Azerbaijanis involved in five thematic groups established by LINKS Europe earlier this year were briefed by Murad Muradov, co-Chair of the thematic group on Peace and Security; Liman Namazova, Chair of the thematic group on Environment; Lala Jumayeva, Chair of the thematic group on gender and diversity; Nigar Gurbanli, Deputy Chair of the thematic group on regional connectivity; and Ramazan Samadov, Deputy Chair of the thematic group on Governance, on the work done so-far. Murad Muradov spoke about his visit to Yerevan earlier in the week, and his speech to Armenian thematic group members. He said the momentum for peace, dialogue and regional co-operation was stronger than ever before. Ambassadors and other representatives of EU member states and others, as well as representatives of the EU Delegation, the EUSR office and other international institutions were in attendance. In a short speech to the gathering, LINKS Europe Director, Dr Dennis Sammut, said that enemies of peace remained active in both Armenia and Azerbaijan. Many had been warmongers for years, and it was difficult for them to change. However it was important to engage them, and have an open and honest discussion with them. The Azerbaijani members of the thematic groups are eager to meet their Armenian counterparts in person in Tbilisi 27-28 October, when they hope to finish the work on the five reports.
