ArmInfo. EU states are assessing the situation in Nagorno- Karabakh and have not yet made  any decisions to impose sanctions against Baku. Lead Spokesperson for EU Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Peter Stano stated at a briefing on September 21.

He commented on the calls heard in the European Parliament to impose  sanctions against Azerbaijan. "Any decision on sanctions is made by  member states. Member states assess the current situation that is  developing in Nagorno-Karabakh," said a representative of the  European Commission.

Stano emphasized that the possible response to the situation in  Karabakh should be international, which is why EU states are recently  consulting with partners within the UN General Assembly. "At this  stage, there is no decision by the member states on any specific  measures to be taken. They are in the process of being assessed after  consultations with partners: The answer should be international," the  speaker noted, calling for observation of the debates in the UN  Security Council on Thursday, which will dedicated to the situation  in Karabakh.
