"I believe that our servicemen fulfill their duties very well;
outcomes of the exercises evidently prove it once again. Our army
has risen to the occasion," Nagorno Karabakh President, Supreme
Commander-in-Chief of the NKR armed forces Arkady Gukasyan is quoted
by a REGNUM correspondent as stating after planned military exercises
were over in Nagorno Karabakh.
Commenting on Baku reaction to the maneuvers and in particular on
statements "about Armenian forces' concentration in Agdam section,"
Arkady Gukasyan said: "It is not worth seriously to relate
to Azerbaijani mass media's statements because they constantly
spread propaganda. Our army should always be strong, ready for any
developments. The maneuvers have been aimed exactly at achieving the
goals". Responding to question on meeting of Armenian and Azerbaijani
foreign ministers in Paris, Arkady Gukasyan stressed: "We should be
optimists because if we loose belief in talks, war will be alternative
of talks that is undesirable for both us and Azerbaijan.
Surely, we all are interested in talks' continuation. As for outcomes,
there is no sense to speak about them because our agreement may be
approved only after its all items will be coordinated. There is no
such result yet. The more often Armenian and Azerbaijani FMs will meet
the better it will be because every such meeting is a new chance to
coordinate items on which no consensus has been achieved yet." At
that the Karabakh state head expressed hope that Nagorno Karabakh
participation in talks will be real soon: "We repeatedly stressed
that it is impossible to settle problem without NKR because there
are many questions which immediately concern Nagorno Karabakh."
Arkady Gukasyan stressed; position of the Karabakh side "has not
change and it will not change." "We know very well what we want. We
will not reject our independence and any obstacle in the problem is
unacceptable for us," the NKR president said.
