Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what representations he has made to OSCE Minsk Group on the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict; and what plans he has for the UK's role in the event that that conflict continues to escalate.

The UK Delegation to the OSCE has issued three statements on the 29 September, 8 October and 15 October on the current conflict, urging de-escalation and an urgent return to the negotiation table under the auspices of the OSCE Minsk Group. The UK continues to support the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs of France, Russia and the United States as they look towards finding a peaceful settlement to the ongoing conflict.
