    BAKU TRIES TO KEEP KARABAKH FROM THE PARTICIPATION IN NEGOTIATIONS AS
    A FULL PARTY

    YEREVAN, December 16. /ARKA/. Baku tries to keep Karabakh from the
    participation in negotiations as a full party, as NKR President
    Arkadi Ghukasyan stated during the republican session. According to
    ARKA's reporter in Stepanakert, Ghukasyan stated that the efforts of
    the NKR government target at establishing dialogue with Azerbaijan
    around the final peace settlement of the conflict as NKR people wish.
    "The position of Azerbaijani authorities led the negotiations process
    to blind alley, the way out of which is impossible to be found
    without full participation of NKR representatives. The Karabakh side
    has always adhered to peaceful settlement of the conflict, and
    contributes to the work of the co-Chairmen of OSCE Minsk Group, the
    mediating potential of which is not exhausted. NKR is ready to start
    direct dialogue with Azerbaijan and to discuss all the problems
    regarding the perspective of future relations. However, the
    authorities of Baku hinder it and do not contact the Karabakh side",
    Ghukasyan said.
    The Karabakh conflict started in 1988, when Nagorno Karabakh
    predominantly populated with Armenians declared its independence from
    Azerbaijan. The peak of military conflict fell to 1992-1993. Military
    actions ceased after Armenia and Azerbaijan signed armistice on May
    12 1994. The cease-fire regime has been observed up to date. Today,
    negotiations are carried out to settle the conflict through
    international mediation. OSCE Minsk Group with the chairmanship of
    the USA, France and Russia is involved in Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
    settlement.
    UN General Assembly supported the inclusion of the issue Situation in
    the occupied territories of Azerbaijan in the agenda of November 59th
    session. This corresponding appeal of Azerbaijan was supported by 42
    delegations, 2 voted against and 99 states, including Russia
    abstained from voting. A.H. –0—
