French co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Bernard Fassier considers that resumption of CoE sub-committee on Karabakh was a personal initiative of PACE President Mevlut Cavusoglu.
In his letter sent to member of the Armenian delegation to PACE Naira Zohrabyan, Fassier commented on resumption of sub-committee on Karabakh due to actions of Azerbaijani-Turkish duo.
The Armenian MP said that Fassier’s letter in particular mentions that he takes into account concerns that there is a threat that sub-committee’s activities may interfere with peace process carried out by the OSCE Minsk Group.
“Restoration of subcommittee in 2011 is a personal initiative of PACE President Mevlut Cavusoglu and is only a formal decision pursuing more political than practical goals,” he wrote to Armenian MP.
“Let me remind you of the commitments of France, Russia and the US to be with the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan to help them reach a balanced decision on Karabakh conflict based on negotiations. Only a peace process, acceptable to all sides will enable achieve a political solution to this conflict through negotiation.”
Zohrabyan stressed that Fassier notes it was personal initiative of Cavusoglu which once again proves assertions of the Armenian delegation voiced in PACE.
“The reasons why Cavusoglu was interested in sub-committee’s work were clear for us. He seeks adoption of anti-Armenian resolution which will be necessary to be fulfilled,” he added.
