    -WE HAVE LOST ON DIPLOMATIC LEVEL-
    [06:15 pm] 29 May, 2008

    Today Republican Gagik Minassian and Member of the
    -Heritage- Party Larissa Alaverdian were hosted at the
    Hayeli Club to discuss the issue of Karabakh conflict
    settlement.

    -No RA Parliament can endanger the Nagorno-Karabakh
    achievements of the past 20 years-, declared Gagik
    Minassian in reply to an -A1+- question if Serzh
    Sargssian had discussed the possible solutions to the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict acceptable for the
    Republican Party.

    Minassian also noted that confidentiality of
    negotiations on Nagorno-Karabakh conflict regulation
    does not allow the problem to be discussed in a party
    format, so the party did not confer over the issue.

    But the document of the NKR conflict regulation that
    the co-chairs currently possess, is totally satisfying
    for Gagik Minassian. -It is quite pleasing that the
    NKR right to self-determination is defined in the
    document as reality-, Gagik Minassian says. However,
    Member of the -Heritage- Party Larissa Alaverdian
    contradicts him. To her point of view in foreign
    documents the NKR right to self-determination is
    recognized only in the territory of Azerbaijan.
    Neither does Ms. Alaverdian welcome the idea of
    holding a referendum in 15 years' time since NKR was
    able to gain independence by most strict Soviet laws.

    -Armenia has been losing on diplomatic and
    informational levels since 1995-, declares Larisa
    Alaverdian. But Gagik Minassian cannot agree with her
    statement. According to Ms. Alaverdian NKR conflict
    settlement is in the hands of some authority or group
    that decides when and why a certain step should be
    taken. Such was Raffi Hovhannissian's project that was
    not even taken into the agenda for the authorities
    considered it wasn't proper for the time being.

    However, both the speakers had the same opinion on the
    current state of NKR: NKR has seriously developed and
    today it has a generation that has never lived under
    foreign rule. And even the international public has to
    reckon with it.

    Gagik Minassian does not expect much from the upcoming
    meeting of the two Presidents as Azerbaijan is going
    to hold Presidential elections soon and the period is
    not far suitable for negotiations. -They will
    undertake a cognitive attitude-, says Minassian.
