Nagornyy Karabakh will never be part of Azerbaijan, Armenian Prime
Minister Andranik Markaryan has told a congress of the Yerkrapa Union
of Volunteers in Yerevan.
He went on to say that Armenia's territory can never be a subject of
bargaining during discussions about options for settling the conflict
and that Nagornyy Karabakh should have status that would ensure the
security of the people and borders of both Nagornyy Karabakh and
Armenia. "Therefore, proposals that run counter to these principles
will be accepted neither by the Yerkrapa Union nor by the Republican
Party or political forces which do not want peace at all costs just to
resolve the problem," Markaryan said.
