16:50, 03.12.2020

We reiterate our conviction that the protracted conflicts in the South Caucasus can be resolved only if participating States agree to solve them in line with the OSCE principles. This is the case for Nagorno-Karabakh but also Georgia, through the Geneva international discussions, and Moldova, – High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, stated at the OSCE 27th Ministerial Council.

Borrell said that the stability in the OSCE area is a strategic priority for the European Union and EU will continue to mobilize its instruments and policies towards achieving this goal.

“In our Eastern neighbourhood, we are now shaping our future Eastern Partnership agenda, which for eleven years has been delivering tangible results for the people. Together with its Member States, the European Union continues to believe that it is vital to modernise the OSCE politico-military toolbox, most notably the Vienna Document, in order to increase military stability, transparency and predictability,” said Borrell.
