YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 14, ARMENPRESS. The OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairing countries are making efforts in order to again create grounds for dialogue in the negotiation process of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of France to Armenia Jean-Francois Charpentier said at a meeting with reporters, reports “Armenpress”.

“The three Co-Chairs are convinced that the conflict must be settled only through peaceful means. The current situation cannot be acceptable for any of the conflicting sides since there are casualties in both sides not only during the April events but also they continue till now in the line of contact. This situation can no longer continue”, the French Ambassador said.

He said in order to reach the resolution of the conflict, it is necessary to implement the agreements and commitments reached within the frames of meetings taking place at various levels.

“As time grows to maturity, France is ready to assist and host such meetings, as recently President Francois Hollande said in his speech. And finally, we must understand one thing in this context that the conflict settlement doesn’t depend on mediators: it is related with the political will demonstrated by the conflicting sides”, the French Ambassador said.
