There can be no alternative to the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict within the format of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmanship, Armenian foreign minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan said on Twitter, commenting on Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev’s thunderous statements during a military parade in Baku, reports Armenpress.

“The settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict can be achieved exclusively through peaceful negotiations within the format of OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmanship. War mongering and saber rattling are irrelevant, deplorable if not preposterous. Inconsistency of language for internal consumption and at negotiations doesn’t work. Need a more responsible and sensible negotiating party across the table”, the Armenian FM tweeted.
