China urges restraint after Garabagh clash
China Thursday urged calmness and restraint after clashes in the
Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh region, where Armenia and Azerbaijan have
a territorial dispute.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang made the remarks while
commenting on an exchange of fire in the region on June 18.
"China consistently holds a clear stance on the Nagorno Garabagh
issue," Qin said, adding that China hopes the dispute will be
settled peacefully, Xinhua reported.
Stressing that there is no change in China's stance, Qin expressed
China's hope that the parties concerned have enough political
wisdom to find a solution through negotiation and dialogue.
He said such an outcome is in the interests of both Azerbaijan and
Armenia.
