Even if the Armenian party goes on a territorial concession in the
Karabakh issue, it will be only in exchange for a referendum for the
status of Nagorny Karabakh, Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan
told journalists.
"We shall go on a concession only if all the steps in the package on
settlement of Karabakh conflict are clear for the Armenian party. It is
also important for Armenia that Nagorny Karabakh has an international
status before the referendum, he said. Let it be a status of an
administrative unit having direct ties with international structures
guaranteeing its security and not the status of an unrecognized
republic, the premier said.
As regards the UN Resolution "On the Situation in the occupied
territories of Azerbaijan," the premier said this document contains
sound title contradicting to the position of Armenia. However, it
plays no key role in the settlement of Karabakh problem.
