'Using the resolution Azerbaijanians again profiteered in NKR issue.
Fortunately, we managed to alleviate it. But it doesn't mean that we
succeeded to hamper Azerbaijanians to introduce the document where
Karabakh as well was represented as an occupied territory. Of course,
it would be good if other territories weren't represented as occupied
territories, either butwe didn't manage`, Armenian delegation member
Shavarsh Kocharyan said after discussion on Azerbaijan's report.
- What impact will Azerbaijan report have on settlement of Karabakhi
conflict?
-Irrespective of the changes, where Karabakhi issue is talked about
everyone is at a deadlock and accepts that conflict is between Armenia
and Azerbaijan. We must remind all the time that the conflict can't
be settled without participation of Karabakh.
-Who is to blame for such an opinion?
First it is the neglect in our foreign policy. No one made Robert
Kocharyan assume settlement of Karabakhi conflict. The meetings are
important but Karabakh must partake in those meetings. The conflict
won't be solved without Karabakh. Unfortunately, the standpoint that
Armenia has occupied a part of Azerbaijan prevails in CE.
- Are you sure that CE thinks so?
-I don't say that. Documents prove it. Azerbaijanians cynically
announce what they want - `Armenians have occupied our territories'.
