Occupied Territory, considers Former Russian Mediator
27.05.08 17:09
Former Russian mediator Vladmir Kazimirov stated today in Yerevan that
the negotiations on Nagorno-Karabakh conflict are considering possible
stage-by-stage withdrawal of Armenian troops from occupied territory.
According to Mediamax, while speaking today at a press conference in
Yerevan, the retired Russian diplomat said that there had been no real
progress in the negotiations since striking armistice in 1994.
According to Kazimirov, the top-priority task for today is not to
determine the Nagorno-Karabakh status or to return the occupied
territory, but first to conclude a firm armistice at the troops
contact line. He stressed that the key to settlement of the conflict
is to prevent restoration of military operations.
Kazimirov said that referendum or plebiscite to define the status of
Nagorno-Karabakh must not be delayed to 10-15 years. `I think 5 years
are enough,' he said.
