    THE NK CONFLICT WON'T BE SETTLED IN 2006

    Aravot.am
    21 April 06


    This is one of the affirmations in which the guests of `Mirror' club,
    the former Foreign Minister Alexander Arzumanian and the current NA
    deputy chairman Tigran Torosian were sure.

    Has there been something before 1998 or the history of Armenian people
    starts from that time when the defeaters with their `stage by stage'
    version left and the fighters succeeded them who were promising to
    settle the NK conflict by a quick package. Not only the conflict has
    been settled during 8 years but according to Al. Arzumanian they
    discuss the same `stage by stage' version though Vahan Hovhannisian
    calls it `package type consists of small packages'. The dispute round
    Armenian history started between the guests when T. Torosian suggested
    not sharing achievements `respecting the people who are in the focus
    of the RA foundation. The achievements belong to all of us, mentioning
    the terms.' Accepting the suggestion A. Arzumanian noticed that there
    was an impression after'98 that nothing happened in the Armenian
    history except the adoption of Christianity, Genocide and changeover
    of political powers in '98.

    As regards the final settlement of the NK conflict though T. Torosian
    noticed that `the international community declares in last 1-2 years
    that not only the right of territorial integrity must be principal but
    the right of nations' self-determination, too. But he wasn't sure that
    the positive intention will remain `till the moment when the
    settlement is found'.

    They also spoke about the most painful problem of the region, US-Iran
    counteraction, which threatens to become a serious military
    confrontation. o the question of `Lragir.am' whether it is possible
    that the NK conflict is settled together with the Iranian problem
    Al. Arzumanian answered; `Such problems are often solved together with
    others, because we and Azerbaijan are nothing in the global policy. If
    the unsettled NK conflict prevents the settlement of important
    geopolitical problems then it will be settled'. The former Foreign
    Minister excludes military actions of Turkey towards the RA because
    they don't have any motivation in contrast with Azerbaijanis; `the
    conflict isn't settled for many years, it's logical that they want to
    take revenge'. `If it is possible to keep that status-quo another 50
    years I'll be for ,- A. Arzumanian declared,- but this situation don't
    give an opportunity to the RA to be developed and even has serious
    influence on internal developments because a dictatorship is
    established under pretence of stability'. Delaying the problem isn't
    profitable for Azerbaijan because a part of those territories aren't
    controlled by it but Azerbaijan develops more today, throwing us out
    from regional projects. But we fight against other regional projects;
    `Our Ministers declare, we won't allow the Azerbaijan and Turkey to
    open a railway. It is a terrorist declaration; let's fight with the
    object which is built in the territory of others.' T. Torosian was
    agreed that Turkey didn't have any motivation for military actions
    against the RA and he was also thinking that the war with Azerbaijan
    was less possible. `Irrespective of the circumstance that this
    situation isn't profitable for Azerbaijan , I think that the
    Azerbaijanis, especially the leadership have got used with the thought
    that Karabakg won't be the part of Azerbaijan . They'll want to delay
    for avoiding unpleasant settlement during their authority'. But he
    didn't agree that a dictatorship exists in Armenia . `Yes, there isn't
    complete democracy in Armenia , it's obvious, there are a lot of
    omissions which give a ground of such formulation but there is no
    dictatorship.'
