    SOME ARMENIAN PARTIES SPECULATE ON KARABAKH PROBLEM: ARMENIA'S FM


    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 2. ARMINFO. Some political parties of Armenia keep
    speculating on the problem of the Karabakh conflict peaceful
    settlement, says Armenia's FM Vardan Oskanyan.

    This speculations are damaging the settlement process and are working
    against Armenia and the Armenian people. Today the opposition is
    saying "yours, ours - ours was better." They should understand that
    the problem should be considered so as to make it as acceptable for
    Armenia as possible.

    All the opposition's statements on the problem are coming to one
    conclusion - that government should be changed. This proves that the
    Karabakh problem is only a tool for them to attain their goal. This is
    a serious blow on Armenia's strong diplomatic positions in the world.

    The opposition's arguments have three serious flaws. First, in Astana
    OSCE Minsk Group discussed just what is now on agenda. Before that the
    Armenian and Azeri FM had met 4 times in Prague exchanging g opinions
    and presenting their results of their discussions to their
    presidents. OSCE MG new that Armenia is ready to continue the Prague
    talks on the basis of the agreements reached by the FMs before.

    The second flaw is that OSCE MG are alleged to support Azerbaijan's
    initiative at UN but in fact they are against it. UN postponed the
    initiative discussion mostly because OSCE MG began to pressure
    Azerbaijan into recalling it at all. The FMs and OSCE MG will shortly
    meet in Sofia.

    The third flaw is that Armenia and its government are reported not to
    be interested in the quick resolution of the problem and to be
    artificially delaying the settlement process. What they mean by
    settlement - if what they are proposing then yes we better delay the
    process - the present Armenian government will never give back its
    controlled territories until the problem of Karabakh's
    self-determination is solved.

    Armenia will not concede just for the conflict to be settled soon. The
    same is for Karabakh's de jure inclusion into Azerbaijan. The process
    will go on until Armenia attains a solution meeting its interests and
    the interests of its people. Azerbaijan's current aggression is the
    result of Armenia's successful diplomacy. Azerbaijan is panicking and
    is rushing from one international organization to another.
