Vardan Oskanyan: "Nagorno Garabagh and Kosovo conflicts have several common features"

Nagorno Garabagh and Kosovo conflicts have something in common, as reported by Armenia's Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan during a press conference on Wednesday.

"Each conflict is specific in nature, but at a definite stage the legal and ethnic features of the conflicts are similar. The Garabagh and Kosovo conflicts also have common features", the Minister noted.

According to him, ethnic cleansing and crimes are among the common features of the Garabagh and Kosovo conflicts.

Oskanyan added that the international community declined the proposal to return the status quo to Kosovo due to these ethnic cleansing and crimes.

"While ethnic cleansing and crimes have been prevented in Kosovo by held of NATO and the international community, Armenia prevented these events towards the people of Garabagh", V.Oskanyan noted.

He said in case of KOsovo the incident became known on the international arena, while the ethnic cleansing and crimes in the so called "Nagorno Garabagh conflict" remained the local problem and were not recognized by the world community.
