26 June 2012 13:47 (UTC +04:00)

APAâ€™s Europe bureau reports that member of the Armenian delegation Naira Zohrabyan asked question on people of Nagorno Karabakh that they can declare their independence as in Kosovo and it deserves to recognize by the international community within the framework of the UN. But the Albanian minister said that the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is different than Kosovo: â€œThe settlement of Nagorno Karabakh is outside of our competence as the organization of the Council of Europe. The OSCE Minsk Group is engaging in this issue and we support the peaceful settlement of this conflict. Negotiations processes on the conflict are the focus of attention of the Cabinet of Ministers of Council of Europe. The Council of Europe is always ready to give its contribution to the peace agreements. At the same time, the mains issue is to create an atmosphere of mutual understanding between the sides. About the Kosovo issue, it is a different issue and Kosovo issue has its special characteristics.â€
