There are matters where the presence of mediators is mandatory in the negotiations with Azerbaijan. Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Mnatsakan Safaryan stated this on Thursday, speaking with reporters at the National Assembly of Armenia. "There are matters where the presence of mediators has a very important role," Safaryan said. According to the Armenian deputy FM, such matters, for example, refer to the rights of Armenians forcibly displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh. "The existence of international mechanisms is important here; that is one matter. There are other matters where guarantees are important. We have noted that at the moment, the matter of the rights of the forcibly displaced [Armenian] population [of Nagorno-Karabakh] is being raised by Armenia in the negotiations," Safaryan emphasized.
