/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Moscow intends to actively promote search for unbinding
the Karabakh knot, stated Alexander Yakovenko, a Russian Foreign Ministry
official representative, reported RIA Novosti. In his words, Moscow `is
going to continue actively promoting search for unbinding the Karabakh
knot.' `We positively assess the outcomes of the latest meeting of the
Armenian and Azeri Presidents in Warsaw in May. It conveyed an impetus to
the search for soonest political settlement of the Karabakh conflict,' the
diplomat emphasized. `The position of Russia over Karabakh remains unchanged
in principle. We come against imposing any recipes from the outside over the
participants of the conflict and we proceed from the point that the basic
responsibility for the final choice should be carried by Azeris and
Armenians themselves,' the Russian Foreign Ministry official representative
said. He noted that Russia `would be ready to support the option of solution
of the problem that fits all parties to conflict and in case a compromise
agreement is made - to come as the guarantor of the settlement.' `In our
opinion the solution of the problem allowing to restore stability and peace
in the Transcaucasia will be viable. In the post-conflict period it will
assist in sustaining the historically formed geo-political balance of power
there and will not lead to making the region an arena of international
political and military contest,' Mr. Yakovenko underscored.
