Karabakh conflict makes it difficult to address a number of issues in the region, Dutch Parliamentary Speaker Rene Van der Linden told the journalists today, Trend News reports.

According to him, the Netherlands stands for a peaceful settlement of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

"Azerbaijani President demonstrates a constructive position on this issue," Linden said.

Interestingly, Linden’s statement on Azeri leader’s constructive position in the Karabakh peace process is at least strange amid the frequent acts of sabotage by Azerbaijan.
