Peter Semneby

EU Special Representative on the South Caucasus Peter Semneby began his visit to Azerbaijan from Ganja.

He met with the head of Ganja City Executive Power Eldar Azizov on November 15.  Peter Semneby Called Ganja a gate of Azerbaijan opened to the West and said it was important to learn life style in the city. He said he would visit Baku after Ganja.

Semneby mentioned Nagorno Karabakh conflict too. “I can’t say anything about the settlement of the conflict now mostly because EU is not in the OSCE Minsk Group, but the European Union can and will play a role in the solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict. We have great experience in this field. Our conflict experience could be useful for Karabakh conflict too. Regarding the negotiation process I can say that there was intensification over the past year. Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents and foreign ministers held a number of meetings. Even they signed a document in Moscow year ago, which is a positive event in the settlement of the conflict. We hope that the process will be developed”.

Semneby said he couldn’t say anything about the upcoming meeting of Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents in November.
