COCHAIRS TRY TO REVIVE THE PROPOSED PEACE DEAL
The move of Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement to
U.N. is a new challenge for Armenia, Vartan Oskanyan,
foreign minister of Armenia, said pointing out to some
qualitative and quantitative changes. `We will have to
deal with four different countries and not only with
Azerbaijan. Each of these countries has its circle of
friends. So, the scope of interests enlarges,' he
said. However, Oskanyan expressed his readiness to
`enter into concrete discussions when there is a
resolution.' Anyway, he said it changes the focus of
attention from the main process.
The minister said OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs want to
revive the peace deal which was approved by the
Armenian side and to record positive move by the end
of this year. He also said if the conflict gets into
U.N., Nagorno Karabakh should become part of the
negotiations. `U.N. is comprised of 159 countries
which have no idea about the process and have no
interests. They can vote based on political sympathies
for this or that side. We cannot leave the fate of
Karabakh to the vote of some countries in Latin
America and the Caribbean islands. This means that
Karabakh must be a part of the process. It does not
mean that Armenia will not be involved. It will but
only with Karabakh,' the minister said. /Panorama.am/
