The
goal of this project is to maintain the participation of the
Azerbaijani government in the Oslo Process. The
government’s current stance on the Oslo Process is that
Azerbaijan does not have a cluster munitions
contamination problem, but still insists that it may not be able
to sign on to any future treaty banning cluster munitions as long as
the prospect of renewed conflict with Armenia remains a possibility.
This being the case, the government has shown that it may be
willing to continue its participation at certain conferences in a
limited capacity. The AzCBL realizes that full participation in the
Oslo Process may remain an unrealistic goal, but with continued
lobbying of the government it may be possible to maintain an
interest in at least being involved in the remaining
deliberations. By encouraging the government to send delegations
to the remaining conferences, it may be possible
for Azerbaijan’s government to pursue participation in the
Oslo Process and its eventual treaty.
