"Protectors" of Armenia don't want to see Turkey as OSCE Minsk Group co-chair

Turkey wants peace and stability in our region, senior official of Azerbaijan's Aydinlar political party Nizami Guliyev said.
He was commenting on Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian’s recent statement that Turkey cannot become co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group.

"Unfortunately, Yerevan opposes Ankara’s willingness to do so. Armenia does not want to understand many things. For example, it insists on opening the border with Turkey, but it does not want to take into account the factor that it was closed because of the occupation of Azerbaijani territories," he said.

"It is difficult to Armenia to accept this also because it is forced to take action under the order of his patrons. Armenia’s protectors do not want to see Turkey as co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group,” he said.   

"I do not believe that the Minsk Group can settle the Karabakh conflict, because the international community applies double standards with regard to Azerbaijan. Different countries do not want a fair settlement to the Karabakh conflict. Armenia is therefore is not conducive to negotiations," he added.
