19.01.2005 15:32
/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Equating of different conflicts testifies of
absolute ignorance. Our Georgian, Russian, European and American
partners perfectly realize that the conflicts in Abkhazia, Ossetia
and Pridnestrovye are bearing quite different nature", Vice Speaker
of the Armenian parliament, member of AFR Dashnaktsutyun Vahan
Hovhanissian stated when commenting on yesterday's statement by US
Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs
Elizabeth Johns. To remind, Ms. Johns, who is to resign in the near
future, stated that "Russia should be interested in the settlement of
the Prednestrovian, South-Ossetian, Abkhazian and Karabakh conflict,
in establishment of stability in these regions and in removal of
criminalized separatists from office." "Speaking of separative forces
she should have taken into consideration that the whole population of
Nagorno Karabakh wished to come apart from Azerbaijan", V.
Hovhanissian stated. In his opinion, her words do not reflect the
official stand of the United States. "Very often on threshold of
their resignation officials make statements proceeding from certain
interests", he added.
