    Armenia receives "no dividends" from peacekeepers' dispatch to Iraq

    Yerevan, 8 February: The US position on the Karabakh issue which
    has recently been voiced by several high-ranking officials of this
    country shows that Armenia has received no dividends from dispatching
    peacekeepers to Iraq, opposition MP Stepan Zakaryan told the Armenian
    parliament today.

    He said that all the discussions in parliament and behind closed
    doors about the certain dividends received by Armenia after it decided
    to dispatch the peacekeeping contingent to Iraq and about the USA's
    position on Karabakh turned out to be untrue.

    To prove his point, Zakaryan quoted the recent remarks by US Assistant
    Secretary of State Elizabeth Jones, the US State Department and the
    US embassy in Armenia on the Karabakh problem.

    Apart from this, the MP recalled Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan's
    earlier statement that not all leading countries of the world put
    the issue of solving the Karabakh conflict in the same frame as the
    issue of Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.

    In this connection, the MP said that deputies are becoming less
    trustful of Oskanyan's statements, since the recent remarks by
    representatives of various "key" countries has proved the opposite.
