â€œAll, as well as the European Union are interested in the soonest solution to the frozen conflicts. We saw it in Georgia-Russia war last year. A frozen conflict may turn into a hot conflict. Therefore, we should find way of solution to these conflicts, including Nagorno Karabakh conflict. The European Union does not participate in the process of negotiations. OSCE Minsk Group is dealing with this issue. Moreover, first of all it is up to Armenia and Azerbaijan to find ways of solution,â€ he said.

Samuel Zbogar said the European Union should support the process carried out by Minsk Group.
â€œThe European Union can do much to accelerate establishment of confidence between the two countries and contribute to promoting interregional cooperation in the South Caucasus. For this purpose, Eastern Partnership program was established between the European Union and South Caucasus countries and others. The Eastern Partnership aims to establish closer cooperation between these countries and the European Union. We expect reforms and development from the above-mentioned countries. We want to facilitate these reforms, development in these countries. These valuable means may also indirectly help solve Nagorno Karabakh conflict,â€ he said.
