Yerevan, 1 August: Armenia has actually resolved the Karabakh problem
and should now declare Nagornyy Karabakh its province, Armen Avetisyan,
leader of the Armenian Aryan Union, said during a news conference at
the Pastark discussion club today.
As a result of hostilities in the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict, it
became possible to implement the decision of the Nagornyy Karabakh
referendum to merge with Armenia, he said. However, in the course
of the negotiations, several local politicians have been talking
about compromises and the handover of territories to Azerbaijan. The
handover of territories will allow Azerbaijan to shell and bomb the
Armenian towns of Kapan or Goris, Avetisyan said. He also expressed
his confidence that Azerbaijan will resume the hostilities at first
opportunity as soon as it considers itself to be ready for this.
Commenting on the visit to the region by the US co-chairman of the
OSCE Minsk Group, Matthew Bryza, the leader of the union said that
the visit was aimed at "finding out who in Armenia and Azerbaijan
is ready for concessions. Those who are readier will be treated
by the West graciously. It is not by chance that Bryza did not meet
the opposition. If the authorities of either country refuse to make
concessions, they will be replaced," Avetisyan said.
