The EU has never been invited to join the OSCE Minsk Group engaged in the Karabakh peace process, said Roland Kobia, head of the EU delegation in Azerbaijan.

The Union fully supports the OSCE Minsk Group’s activity to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the principles its work is based on, he said.

However, he noted that the EU wants to be helpful and do everything it can outside of the group, Azerbaijani Trend agency reports.

“Renewed European Neighbourhood Policy” report was presented on Wednesday which says EU’s enhanced involvement is necessary in solving protracted conflicts.
