Speaker of Armenian parliament Tigran Torosyan is not satisfied with the activity of the US co-chairman of OSCE Minsk Group Matthew Bryza.
"I am discontented with the position of the co-chairs, especially of one of them", said Torosyan speaking about the resolution of Nagorno Karabakh conflict. At the same time the speaker added that in one of the interviews he said that this co-chair in Matthew Bryza.
Torosyan said the format of the OSCE Minsk Group is expedient but it is needed to set a task not on the blackmail level, as Azerbaijan does.
The head of the Armenian parliament considers that blackmail had a certain influence on the co-chairs of the Minsk Group, which is proven by the recent statements about the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.
"Their answer can be predicted, if they are directly asked about it: they will certainly say that the principle of self-determination is a basis for the resolution. However, it seems that the mandate of the OSCE Minsk Group requires an unbiased position", Torosyan said.
He noted that interviews and announcements, made by definite co-chairs for press, are inadmissible, as such materials form public opinion and false illusions, misleading the Azerbaijaini population and encouraging expansion of militaristic statements.
Torosyan added that the co-chairs can not have different approaches to a single problem.
"Unfortunately, this wide scale information attack, initiated by Azerbaijan, has not a complete answer by Armenia. Certainly, negotiations are most important and they should be secret, however the public, including the international society, should be provided with complete and exact information about the conflict formation", Torosyan said.
Azerbaijan undertakes steps to dismiss the OSCE Minsk Group and has sent the due document to the organization.
