YEREVAN. – Tense situation at the line of contact between Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan during the recent days is a result of passive position of Armenia's diplomacy, former Ombudsman Larisa Alaverdyan said during a press conference on Thursday.

According to her, if further action is not taken from Yerevan, Baku would continue to stick to their line that will further aggravate the situation.

“We keep waiting for a goal scored to our gates, and only then we begin to move,” she said, adding  that wait-and-see position is not the best action in this conflict.

Instead, according to the first Ombudsman, the Armenian diplomacy should take necessary steps in order to demonstrate that implementation of Baku's requirements will not lead to peace and stability in the region.
