UN General Assembly's upcoming session to have two Nagorno-Karabakh conflict related issues

The Resolution project on the Nagorno-Karabakh will remain on the agenda of the 64th and even next 65th UN General Assembly, the Information center of the UN Headquarters, New-York said. According to the information office, UN General Assembly’s upcoming 65th session is going to have two Nagorno-Karabakh conflict related issues.

Those are the resolution projects named "Protracted conflicts in the GUAM area and their implications for international peace, security and development" (issue number 34) and "The situation in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan" (issue number 39), the centre said.

According to the UN HQ information office, these items have not yet been considered by the General Assembly at its 64th session, and remain on the agenda. The HQ information office notices, that the exact time when these resolution projects are to be discussed during the GA session, will be specified in the end of September. The 65th session will convene at UN Headquarters on 14 September 2010.

However, US based expert on Eurasian countries, Dr Robert Cutler believes that the so far UN has not been able to make any real contribution to the solution of protracted conflicts in the Caucasus region. “This is not necessarily the UN’s fault but just a fact," he told APA’s Washington correspondent commenting on UN’s role in solving frozen conflicts.
