"Madam President, may I start, as Chair of the EU Delegation for Relations with the South Caucasus, by echoing the very words spoken today by the Vice-President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union. It is far too easy to take a position and apportion blame. She has not done so and I will seek not to do so either.
What happened is actually no surprise. The situation was unsustainable and bore the inherent danger of the resumption of hostilities. What happened was bound to take place. My message to my Armenian friends is that the status quo is not in your interests – not in the short term, not in the long term. My message to my Azeri friends, with whom we hope to resume interparliamentary dialogue, is that the fact that you are frustrated with the situation does not mean that the OSCE’s long—protracted confidence—building measures are superfluous, if only to prevent an accidental escalation. You can help in this respect.
My message to both is that you are the ones that have the primary responsibility to find reasonable compromises, based on international law. There is no external actor that can do this in your place, certainly not the one that is selling both of you bullets."@en1
