"The window is open, we mustn't exclude any development, hope dies
but last; we must anchor hope that we shall be able to come to an
agreement on the matters of principle," RA Foreign Minister Vartan
Oskanian announced in today's press release.
The latter didn't exclude the possibility of meeting with his Azeri
counterpart at any moment but he didn't go into details and didn't
inform anything about that forthcoming meeting. "Every meeting is
held when there are new approaches and new offers," noted Vartan
Oskanian and added that he didn't see any ground for new offers
yet. He connected the efficiency of the Bucharest meeting with the
offer which is in the process of discussions and with the complication
of the matter. "Unfortunately we failed; the matter under question
was rather complicated. It was also put in front of the Presidents
in Rambouillet and it was again a failure. The new approaches were
not approved either."
Yesterday the Azeri deputy informed the Armenian journalists that the
Armenian side refused to take the Armenian forces out of 6 regions
and turned down the offer to allocate the peace-keeping forces
instead though they had agreed beforehand. Asked the question by
"A1+" whether the announcement of the Azeri deputy was grounded and
whether the offer was finally turned down Mr. Oskanian answered, "Today
all the questions connected with the conflict settlement are put on
the table. Our foremost task is the recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh
status. As for the elimination of the consequences it must be done
after the NKR recognition."
By the way, if one-page document was put in front of the presidents
during the Paris meeting, it turned into two-page document in
Bucharest. Asked the question what the length of the document is
determined by Vartan Oskanian answered jokingly, "Not by the budget"
and then added that there were no many changes in the contents only
the length of the document changed.
As for Serge Sargsyan's announcement that Azerbaijan is likely to lose
its chance to settle the conflict in peaceful way Oskanian answered
diplomatically, "After each negotiation we think that another chance
to settle the conflict in peaceful way was missed."
Vartan Oskanian once more claimed that the NKR conflict has no military
solution; if it had it would have been settled long ago. The Armenian
side frequently announces about the necessity of peaceful negotiations.
