“According to our predictions, the results of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs’ regional visit were not slow to arrive,” the daily reads. The mediators issued a joint statement, the essence thereof is as such: “Armenia and Azerbaijan accepted the L’Aquila Principles, now it is time to move towards completing work on the Basic Principles to enable the drafting of a peace agreement.”

In a word, the mediators urge the parties.  It is alarming the Co-Chairs also met with “representatives of Azerbaijani community, displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh” in Baku. Thus, they met with representatives of “Karabakh Armenian community” in Stepanakert, whereas in Baku with “Karabakh Azerbaijani community”. They try to put a sign of equality between the two “communities”. A more alarming point in the statement is the co-chairs decided to visit “the occupied territories.” The problem is not even the phrase “occupied territories”, but the purpose of the visit,” the daily says.
