ArmInfo. "There are always two people sitting at the negotiating table, otherwise they can not be called negotiations," Kazakhstan's ambassador to Armenia Timur Urazaev said in an interview with the Yerevan-based Azg newspaper, responding to a question about his country's position on the Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) conflict.
The Ambassador of the bill should make a reservation that "this issue is principled not only for Armenia, but also for Azerbaijan." "My country's position on the Nagorno-Karabakh problem has been known and unchanged since the early 1990s. We are confident that this problem must be resolved in accordance with the principles of international law, such as territorial integrity and the right to self-determination, on the basis of the relevant UN resolutions and the decisions reached within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group. "According to Urazaev, while both sides can not implement these most important principles in the peace process, it is hardly worth hoping for a mutually acceptable solution to the issue.
"Kazakhstan's position is solidary with the approaches of the absolute majority of the countries of the international community, but no third state can help either by force of arms or political pressure, while Armenia or Azerbaijan will have dissatisfaction in protecting their interests. Perhaps, the phrase "no one wants the world more than you yourself" is the most suitable for this case. Briefly explain this idea. Your readers should not think that Kazakhstan in its centuries-old history has always had cloudless and peaceful periods in the region. But here are the main principles of modern Kazakhstani politics and diplomacy: to find a common language with neighbors who are given to you forever; Do not take old historical wounds, but let them heal; define and agree with them on borders on internationally recognized principles and engage in peaceful construction in the interests of their people. This <recipe> can be continued, but it is well known to many of you. Do I believe in an early resolution of the problem? The main thing is that you believe in this>, noted the head of the Kazakhstani diplomatic mission in Armenia.
