ARMENIAN SIDE READY FOR MUTUAL CONCESSIONS WITHOUT ANY EXTERNAL INFLUENCE,
ROBERT KOCHARIAN SAYS
Yesterday, Robert Kocharian, RA President, met with the students and the
professors of the Economy Faculty of the Yerevan State University. He
discussed inner political and economic issues during the meeting. Robert
Kocharian stated that the recognition of the Armenian Genocide is a primary
issue on the inner political agenda but not a single state instance has put
forward a territorial demand yet. President said that the coming political
figures should deal with the legal consequences of the recognition of the
Armenian Genocide. "We should consistently struggle for the international
recognition of the Armenian Genocide," he said.
As for the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, Robert Kocharian said that the
Armenian side had never denied that the issue can be settled only based on
mutual concessions, as the alternative variant of the mutual concessions
made by the sides can mean the capitulation of one of the sides, while none
of them are eager to take that step. While the mutual concession of the
Armenia side are connected with the inner political and economic stability
of Armenia. He denied the concerns that the international community is
forcing the sides to make mutual concessions. "On the contrary, the
mediators definitely announce that they are ready to apply all their
political and economic resources to assist the sides to achieve the
settlement of the issue. The Armenian side is ready to make mutual
concessions quite voluntarily without any external influence," he said.
They also discussed issues concerning education and the shadow economy of
the country.
