The group of the Dortmund Conference engaged in the Karabakh conflict
is in Armenia. The US co-chair Harold Sonders who is the ex secretary
of the ex US President announced during the round table held today that
their problem is to prepare the society for the peaceful settlement
of the conflict.
He noted that when they started the negotiation process in this format
five years ago, they could not agree in any issue. "Then gradually
we started to listen to each other and come to an agreement", he said.
According to him, the document which is signed today, the draft of the
"Circular Agreement of Peaceful Settlement", does not offer solutions
to the sides but expressed agreed principles.
Russian co-chair Vitali Naumkin noted that as a result of their
activity the status of Karabakh is legalized and the sides recognize
Karabakh as a negotiating party.
Professor Lyudmila Haroutyunyan participating in the round table said,
"The striving of the Armenian side for peaceful life must not be
exploited by the international community. According to him, it is not
yet time to establish peace. There is positive peace in Armenia, and
there is positive peace in Karabakh, and Azerbaijan speaks the military
language and calls for violation and war on the highest levels". Mrs.
Haroutyunyan also said that the international community tends to
reach maximum compromise from the Armenian side.
Vitali Naumkin did not agree with Lyudmila Haroutyunyan and advised
her to read the agreement more carefully. He noted that Azerbaijan
was to have more trouble signing the agreement; and indeed they did.
General Lieutenant Vagharshak Haroutyunyan who represents the Armenian
side in the negotiations of the Dortmund conference considers the
fact that Nagorno Karabakh is considered a negotiating party in this
format the advantage of the agreement.
