Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan stated in a press conference on
July 3 that currently the settlement of the Karabakh conflict has
not reached a point when pressure from the international community
would matter. "It would be possible if the stances of the parties
were very close, and they needed to agree on a small issue; in this
case, the international community would be determined to give a final
settlement of the issue," Vardan Oskanyan.
He says he does not know if the conflict parties have reached this
level. The foreign minister of Armenia thinks that a year ago the
stances and approaches of the parties were different by 180 degrees.
Currently, the foreign minister says, there are common points between
the parties.
"However, it is difficult to say if the difference is so small that
we will be able to reach the final settlement of the issue with extra
pressure from the international community one party or another,"
says Vardan Oskanyan.
He announced again that the principles on the table of negotiations,
which were definitely revealed by Mathew Bryza, "are on the whole
acceptable for Armenia, and Armenia is ready to carry on the talks
based on these principles, because these are comprehensive, quite
balanced, and a right choice of compromise was made."
