The Polish Chairmanship of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) reiterates its full support to the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs, the OSCE Polish Chairmanship said in response to an inquiry from Armenpress when asked to comment on Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev’s threats to “pressure” the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs’ attempts to deal with the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement—and their mandate.

“The Polish Chairmanship is not in the position to comment on the public statements of the President of Azerbaijan. We reiterate our full support and appreciation for the work of the OSCE Minsk Group, its Co-Chairs and the Personal Representative of the Polish OSCE Chair-in-Office Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk,” the Polish OSCE Chairmanship stated.

In his latest infamous interview, the Azerbaijani leader had claimed that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is already resolved and thus the OSCE Minsk Group is obsolete. He went on to claim that if one party of the conflict says the conflict is resolved then it leaves no room for mediation.

Ilham Aliyev has numerously claimed that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict has been resolved after the 2020 war, there is no such thing as "Nagorno-Karabakh," and therefore there is no question of the status of Nagorno-Karabakh.

But the governments of Armenia, Russia, France, United States, and others have repeatedly stressed that the conflict remains unresolved, and called for a comprehensive and peaceful settlement within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmanship.
