WRONG PROVIDENCE

The detection of the main ideas /circular document/ of the peaceful
settlement offered to Armenia and Azerbaijan by the new appointed
OSCE Minsk group cochairman Mathew Brayza and the RA President Robert
Kocharian's declaration in Minsk that Armenia was ready to adopt
that circular document as a ground in Bucharest, made the current
stage of the NK conflict rather simple and transparent. Armenia is
ready to leave the occupied territories instead of opening ways and
replacing peacemakers in the contact zone for holding a referendum
in Karabakh later.
The point is that Azerbaijan is against it. The leadership of that
country wants no replacement of Armenian forces and peacemakers but
replacement of the Azerbaijani forces everywhere. But in that case
by what the Â"autonomy of high classÂ" will be over, which as if
will be given to Karabakh, isn't secret for everyone. That version
is offered for delaying the problem and later by strengthening the
army with Â"oil moneyÂ" to solve the problem by military way.
The project of "becoming rich by selling oil" seems to me a little
utopian, for example Kuwait or Venezuela must belong to the richest
countries of the world and to have the most powerful armies, which
isn't so. The economy of the country can develop only by free rivalry
and by technologies of the 21st century.
The leadership of Azerbaijan misleads it people knowingly, telling
tales as if we live in darkness, die of hunger and if they insist
a little more, we'll yield. Yes, Armenia is a developing, poor and
non-democratic country. But it is obvious that it doesn't yield
Azerbaijan and Georgia. And these three countries can't get out
from this situation together but with open borders and good-neighbor
relations.
I have already written that Brayza's version if isn't worse than
the version of '97 "step by step", isn't also better. But it
shouldn't become the point of internal political manipulations in
Armenia. Especially those who were for "step by step" version won't
say we were offering it 10 years ago. The necessity of making peace
is higher than anyone's personal ambitions.
