The status quo in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is unsustainable, a political solution is needed. This was said by the EU Commissioner for European Neighborhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations Johannes Hahn in an interview with APA.az.
Referring to the position of the EU on unresolved conflicts and particularly the Karabakh question, the EU Commissioner said: "Stability in the South Caucasus cannot be achieved without a lasting resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The status quo is unsustainable, a political solution is needed. Violence and tit-for-tat action on the ground, and confrontational rhetoric do not contribute to peace. The EU has consistently called on the sides to exercise restraint on action and in words. This would help creating an environment conducive to progress in the peace process facilitated by the Minsk Group."
