Sabina Mammadli read more OSCE Chairman-in-Office, North Macedonian Foreign Minister Bujar
Osmani will visit Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia on April 10-13, Azernews reports.
During the visit, the official plans to meet with
parliamentarians, civil society representatives, and other
interlocutors.
The trip will focus on strengthening the cooperation between the
OSCE, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia, addressing existing
security challenges, and promoting peace and stability through
dialogue in the South Caucasus region.
The OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries of Russia, the USA,
and France had mediated a peaceful solution to the
Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict since the signing of the volatile
cease-fire agreement in 1994. The Minsk Group's efforts resulted in
no progress as Armenia refused to abide by the UN Security Council
Resolutions (822, 853, 874, and 884) demanding the immediate and
unconditional withdrawal of its troops from Azerbaijani
territories, which was the main obstacle to the resolution of the
conflict.
The trilateral ceasefire deal, signed by the Azerbaijani,
Russian and Armenian leaders on November 10, 2020, ended the
three-decade-long conflict over the Nagorno-Karabakh region, which
along with the seven adjacent regions came under the occupation of
the Armenian armed forces in the war at the outset of 1990s.
