The Bishop of Coventry received the following written answers on 29th April 2021:
The Lord Bishop of Coventry asked Her Majesty’s Government:
- what assessment they have made of the opening of a museum in Azerbaijan on the second Nagorno Karabakh War on relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
- what steps they are taking to promote dialogue between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park: The UK Government is aware of the opening of a museum in Azerbaijan following the recent Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. During her February visit to the region, the Minister for the European Neighbourhood and the Americas urged all sides to refrain from rhetoric or actions that may delay dialogue or reconciliation between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We continue to urge engagement with the OSCE Minsk Group and Minsk Group Co-Chairs to settle all outstanding matters following last year’s conflict to ensure a secure and stable future and a move towards productive dialogue.
