The Karabakh issue will be resolved by the third president of the
Republic of Armenia, announced the leader of the Marxist Party
of Armenia Davit Hakobyan on March 17. "The presidents of Armenia
and Azerbaijan are not insane to sign an agreement on the eve of
the elections and resolve the issue of Karabakh. This issue will
be resolved by the third president of Armenia, and let the present
leadership forget that the third president will be from their circle.
The third president will be from among people," says Davit Hakoyan.
Khosrov Harutiunyan, the leader of the Christian Democratic Party,
who was also present in this meeting, thinks it is ingenuous to
think that a democratic revolution could enable a resolution of the
Karabakh issue that would favor this or that party. "If you think
that after power changes in Armenia, a new leadership forms through
a fair and democratic election, Azerbaijan will give Karabakh to us,
you are bitterly mistaken," says Khosrov Harutiunyan. To support his
words he gave the example of the change of power in Armenia in 1998,
saying that after 1998 the standpoint of Azerbaijan became tougher.
Khosrov Harutiunyan hurried to reject that before 1998 Azerbaijan was
willing for greater compromises than now. He said he simply wanted
to show that a change of power would not facilitate the resolution.
