The resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict lies in the necessity "to
demonstrate political will for the soonest resolution of the
problem".
The due announcement was made by Armenia's first president Levon
Ter-Petrosyan at a press conference in Yerevan.
He considers that "the details and versions of the conflict
resolution are not important, only a political will is needed".
"This will never occur if Prime Minister Serj Sarkisyan is elected
the President of Armenia", Levon Ter-Petrosyan noted.
According to him, Armenia will have no chances for economic
development until the Karabakh conflict is resolved and it will not
be able to become a modern and worthy state.
"Armenia is be isolated both politically and economically. Itsoutlet
via Azerbaijan to Russia, Middle Asia and Far East and even to
Europe, as well as via Turkey to the Near East and Europe are
closed", the ex-president noted.
He said Armenia has become a country, which lacks prospects of
development and three elements may promote the way out of the
situation, including the soonest resolution of the Karabakh conflict,
opening of Armenia's roads to the external world and normalization of
its direct neighbors, including Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey and Iran.
