“The European Union and NATO wish to play a constructive role in the process of establishment of security and stability in the South Caucasus. The two structures supplement each other, participants of the conference on “The role of the European Union and NATO in ensuring security in the South Caucasus” say.

 

Representatives of the European Union and NATO participating in the conference noted that there was a great shortage of security guarantees in the South Caucasus. Closed borders and conflicts do not allow the parties to establish common policy. The participants of the conference touched upon the issue of the Armenian-Turkish relations. According to NATO representative to the South Caucasus Zbignev Ribatski, the normalization of the Armenian-Turkish relations will contribute to the development of the Armenia-NATO relations. The EU expert considers that the normalization of those relations will become a positive example in the region.

 

“If the parties manage to ratify the Armenian-Turkish protocols and open the border, establish diplomatic relations, it will be the first diplomatic solution in the South Caucasus after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and will become a signal for the whole region,” said Michael Kambeck, secretary general of the Brussels-based European Friends of Armenia, said.
