The situation in Kosovo is incomparable with that in Nagorno-Karabakh, OSCE Minsk Group French Co-Chair Bernard Fassier stated in NATO PA Rose-Roth seminar in Yerevan.
Asked why the precedent of Kosovo independence recognition cannot be applied in case with Karabakh, he pointed out the difference between the conflicts.
“Firstly, Kosovo conflict occurred inside one country, whereas Karabakh is a conflict between two separate countries - Armenia and Azerbaijan."
According to him, the second difference is the presence of international forces in Kosovo for years, which is not the case with Azerbaijan and Armenia.
”Armenians consider Kosovo a precedent which should be applied in case with Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, however it is not possible. In the upshot, Karabakh was not recognized by any country, including Armenia," the OSCE official said.
