There is no essential difference in the approaches of the Armenian
sides regarding the settlement of the Karabakh issue, stated the
speakers of the Armenian and Karabakh parliaments Tigran Torosyan
and Ashot Ghulyan in a news conference after the session of the joint
commission of parliaments.
The parliament of Armenia has launched discussion of the draft
statement on the settlement of Karabakh which includes several
principal approaches. In particular, the parliament urges the
government to conduct a proactive policy on the talks. We need
to formulate and coordinate the legal, scientific stances on the
Karabakh issue, said Tigran Torosyan, underlining that soon working
groups will be set up.
The second important point of the statement is the urge to shape
legal basis for Armenia to guarantee the security of the people of
Karabakh in case of a military aggression.
The third is the worldwide support for Karabakh to return to the
table of talks.
And the fourth is the consolidation of the resource of Armenians
worldwide for the international recognition of NKR.
"We have postponed the discussion of the statement until consultation
with our Karabakh colleagues. As a result we heard a number of new
and useful proposals, but there is no essential difference in our
approaches," said Tigran Torosyan.
"The parliamentarians of Karabakh stated that they reject the
principles of Madrid proposed by the mediators. However, the
new Armenian government has already stated likely to continue the
talks. Will they be based on the principles of Madrid?" In answer to
this question of Karabakh-Open.com Tigran Torosyan said he has read
about some principles in the media although there is no distinct
document on the principles. "There are two recognized principles,
also by the mediators - the territorial integrity and the right for
self-determination. It is evident that the conflict must be solved
on the basis of those principles," said the speaker of the Armenian
parliament.
With regard to the possibility of the recognition of NKR by Armenia,
the speaker of the National Assembly Ashot Ghulyan said a more
effective way has been chosen for "the improvement of interstate
relations" - an agreement.
