The draft resolution says that searching peaceful ways to resolve the conflict derives from commitments undertaken by Armenia and Azerbaijan upon admission to the Council of Europe.

The Assembly calls upon Armenia and Azerbaijan to make use of the opportunities of the chairmanship of the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers to intensify the search for ways to resolve the conflict within the OSCE Minsk Group. It should be a priority during Armenia and Azerbaijan’s chairmanship of the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers.”
