Deputy executive secretary of New Azerbaijan Party (YAP) Siyavush Novruzov told country’s media that he strongly criticizes Karabakh mediators.
“Russia, one of the co-chairs of OSCE Minsk Group, has military bases in Armenia. They supply Armenia with arms. They are directly defending Armenia. France’s position is also known, even former President Nicolas Sarkozy said in Armenia that France is Armenia’s sister. How can the country, which is thinking in this manner and passes a law criminalizing the denial of the Armenian Genocide, have fair approach to the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict? You know that there is a big Armenian Diaspora in the US” said MP, adding “Armenian lobby, which has influence on the Congress, will also influence the US co-chair of OSCE Minsk Group. So, either different countries should be appointed as co-chairs, or OSCE co-chairmanship should be abolished and this process should be discussed at the UN Security Council”.
