RA PRIME MINISTER CONSIDERS IMPROBABLE RESUMPTION OF OF KARABAKH WAR
YEREVAN, MARCH 24, NOYAN TAPAN. The Republican Party of Armenia will
use all its levers and abilities to assist Ijevan Mayor Varuzhan
Nersisian's re-election during the local elections to be held in
Ijevan on coming Sunday. Andranik Margarian, the RA Prime-Minister,
the Chairman of the RAP Council, informed about it during the
March 23 conversation with the journalists. At the same time the
Prime-Minister disproved the news that he personally assists Varuzhan
Nersisian. According to Andranik Margarian, the issues concerning
the local elections weren't discussed in the framework of coalition,
as the elections themselves haven't started yet: "I don't exlude that
we may discuss, but the type of solution will show the life." Touching
upon the Karabakh conflict, the Prime Minister considered unlikely the
resumption of the war. In his opinion, the ceas-fire lasting more that
10 years could be broken long ago, if Azerbaijan or Armenia had sich a
wish. Answering journalists' questions, Andranik Margarian mentioned,
that if today Armenia doesn't recognize Karabakh independence, then
it is only a tactics coming out from the interests of the activities
in process. It is well-known that Armenia gives interstate credit to
Karabakh, without which it would be impossible for Karabakh authorities
to create normal social coditions for Karabakh people. According to
Margarian, the "Interstate" formulation of the credit proves that
Armenia, in fact, does recognize Karabakh as an independent republic.
