Arman Melikyan, the NKR President's Foreign Policy Advisor, is not
delighted by the announcements on the existing open windows and doors
in connection with the Karabakh conflict settlement.
The conflict cannot be settled in the close future because of the
contradictions among the negotiating parties.
Taking into consideration the announcements of the NKR authorities
that hardly any decision can be made without their participation, the
journalists tried to find out whether there are not any contradictions
between the official Yerevan and Stepanakert.
"We had better stay aside from contradictions as Stepanakert also
agreed to participate in the negotiations. We must be concerned about
the fact that the negotiations haven't given positive results yet.
We must say, that the negotiations aren't sufficient on this score,"
said the advisor to the president.
By the way, according to the draft constitution of the NKR (the
referendum of which will be held on December 10) NKR is proclaimed
as sovereign country, whereas the Karabakh conflict is far from being
settled in the nearest future. "I see no problems in this respect as
the negotiations of the conflict may last for 150 years and even more."
We mustn't wait for Azerbaijan to recognise Karabakh's
independence. Karabakh has already proclaimed its independence and
the Constitution referendum tesstifies to this.
Everybody, including Armenia, should realize that NKR is an independent
country. "
Mr. Melikyan assures that after gaining such status the NKR authorities
will be able to ensure the security of their residents better.
He also tried to compare the 1998 negotiations with the current ones,
"Provided the conflict was finally settled, we could speak of obvious
success".
