YEREVAN, MAY 10, ARMENPRESS. Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian received the EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the crisis in Georgia Herbert Salber on May 10, Press Service of the MFA of Armenia informed “Armenpress”.

Armenian Minister Nalbandian presented to Salber the damage to the negotiation process caused by Azerbaijan’s large-scale military aggression against Nagorno Karabakh and the efforts for overcoming its consequences.

The EU Special Representative stated that the conflict has no military solution, and the European Union supports the efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs aimed at peaceful settlement of the conflict.

The interlocutors exchanged views over the possibilities of restarting the negotiation process. In this regard, Minister Nalbandian emphasized that at this moment the meetings can be held directed to the exclusion of repetition of Azerbaijani aggression against Nagorno Karabakh on early of April, the unconditional implementation of trilateral term-less agreements on the establishment and maintenance of the 1994-1995 ceasefire and the installation of ceasefire violations monitoring mechanisms. Edward Nalbandian says these steps will create appropriate conditions to continue the negotiation process.

Armenian Foreign Minister and the EU Special Representative spoke about the EU-Armenia relations and the negotiations on the legal basis.
