    ARKADY GHUKASIAN: THEY TRY TO ISOLATE KARABAKH SIDE FROM NEGOTIATIONS
    ARTIFICIALLY

    Azg/arm
    18 Dec 04

    Arkady Ghukasian, NKR President, expressed regret that "under
    the shelter of the OSCE Minsk group, an attempt is made at
    present to artificially isolate the Karabakh side from the
    negotiations." According to Mediamax, Ghukasian said that "this very
    factor doesnâ~@~Yt allow contributing to progress of the negotiations,
    that could develop the positive achievements of the recent 10 years
    attained by the sides in conflict through the mediation of the
    international experts."

    NKR President didnâ~@~Yt specify who, in particular, tries to
    isolate NKR from the peaceful settlement negotiations. Itsâ~@~Y
    worth mentioning that Vartan Oskanian, foreign minister of Armenia,
    said at a press conference on December 14: "The negotiations between
    Armenia and Azerbaijan in the Prague format will continue up to a
    certain stage, perhaps, until the participation of Nagorno Karabakh
    is unavoidable. At present, the format that existed during several
    years will be preserved."

    "Bakuâ~@~Ys unwillingness to take into account both the created
    realities and the interests of Azerbaijanâ~@~Ys allies, in fact,
    leads the negotiation process to a dead-end that can yield no results
    without Nagorno Karabakhâ~@~Ys participation," Ghukasian said in
    his speech during the conference held with all the representatives
    of the power branches.

    Ghukasian reaffirmed NKRâ~@~Ys determination to open direct
    negotiations with official Baku, as well as to discuss in conference
    all the issues related to the further relations of NKR with
    Azerbaijan. On the other hand, the President pointed out that "the Baku
    authorities are unlikely to give up the absurd and destructive idea of
    solving the problem by force, that makes us take relevant measures for
    strengthening NKRâ~@~Ys defense in future and increase the efficiency
    of our armed forces that secure the safety of our people."

    NKR President emphasized that in the course of the recent four years
    the export of the republic increased for more than 15 times. It
    is expected that by the end of the current year the volume of the
    industrial production will increase for almost 1,5 times as compared
    with the indicators of the last year. "This indicators allow us to
    secure constant increase of our own profits that annually increase
    by 42%," Ghukasian said.
