At a joint press conference with visiting Foreign Minister of Greece Nikolaos Kotzias, Foreign Minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandian noted that the lack of talks on Karabakh is connected with the huge blow to the negotiation process caused by the aggression against Artsakh last April.

"This pushed the negotiation process back," Minister Nalbandian said. He added that Armenia and the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries are making efforts to create conditions conducive to the furthering the negotiation process.

The comments come after Azerbaijan Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov accused Armenia of freezing the Karabakh talks.

"It’s well known that the international community, the Minsk Group Co-Chairs and Armenia are speaking  the same language, while Azerbaijan is speaking a different language," Edward Nalbandian said.

He blamed Azerbaijan for the failure to implement the agreements reached at Vienna and St. Petersburg summits.

Minister Nalbandian stressed that there is no alternative to the negotiations, and the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs maintain efforts to further the negotiation process.

"The Co-Chairs will arrive in Armenia on March 27 and will visit Stepanakert, as well," Edward Nalbandian informed.
