ArmInfo. Currently, the representatives of the OSCE Minsk Group have two tasks: to include the Karabakh side in the negotiation process, the second to sit Azerbaijan at the negotiating table. This was stated by Armen Rustamyan, head of the ARF faction "Dashnaktsutyun" on February 12 at a briefing in the National Assembly. He noted that the Armenian side is always ready for negotiations, and the main goal of the Minsk mediators is to explain to Azerbaijan the necessity of compromises. Rustamyan noted that the last statement of the chairmen of the Minsk Group is addressed to Azerbaijan, and if the authorities of the AR show a little ingenuity, they immediately realize this. "We need to create an environment conducive to negotiations, but as long as there is no response from Baku, it is absolutely impossible," the deputy concluded. In his turn, the head of the Yelk faction Nikol Pashinyan also considered that the statements of the co- chairs were addressed to Azerbaijan, despite the fact that the mediators did not point to a specific side. The deputy stressed the fact that the Armenian side is interested in a peaceful settlement of the Karabakh conflict. According to Pashinyan, the constant violation of the ceasefire and failure to comply with the Vienna agreements is a disgrace, first of all, for the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries. He noted that Azerbaijan constantly evades implementation of peace agreements. In turn, the head of the Republican faction Vahram Baghdasaryan noted that the Azerbaijani side is doing everything possible to discredit the negotiation process on the Karabakh settlement and the co-chairs is quite obvious. "The Armenian side repeatedly demanded to indicate who is guilty of escalating in the conflict zone, but the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs try to avoid this, which certainly contributes to the aggravation of the conflict," Baghdasaryan said, adding that border controls need to be established to monitor the ceasefire.
