YEREVAN, MAY 30, ARTSAKHPRESS. President of the European Council Charles Michel has said that dialogue between Baku and the Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh is now “crucial” and that it is essential for Armenia and Azerbaijan to “reconfirm respect for each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.”

Michel tweeted ahead of the June 1 meeting in Chisinau that he was “looking forward to continuing discussions on Armenia-Azerbaijan normalization” with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. “Essential to reconfirm respect for each other’s sovereignty & territorial integrity, & to advance on border delimitation, also to reduce risks in border areas,” Michel added.

Charles Michel also called for dialogue between Baku and the Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh.

“Dialogue between Baku and Armenians living in former NKAO on their rights & security is now crucial. Important to refrain from maximalist positions and aim for dialogue. After more than 30 years of conflict, wounds take time to heal. Courageous decisions are needed,” Michel added.
