YEREVAN, OCTOBER 31, NOYAN TAPAN. Today the printed media and radical
opposition cause panic moods in Armenian society connected with
the Nagorno Karabakh settlement. Hrayr Karapetian, the head of the
RA National Assembly ARFD faction, stated at the October 31 press
conference. However, he affirmed that there is absolutely no need
to get into a panic, as the Nagorno Karabakh problem will not be
settled in the near future. At the same time the ARFD figure said
that opposition's willingness to cause such moods in the country is
understandable, as thus the oppositionists try to solve a political
problem.
In any case, according to H. Karapetian, we should not forget that
panic has a negative impact on the proper settlement process and on
Armenian nation's moral-psychological state. "Today the situation
is not like in 1988: today our society's problem number one is not
Karabakh," he stated at the same time mentioning that in case of a
new war Armenians will again gain a victory thanks to the strength
of their spirit. And in that case, as H. Karapetian affirmed,
Azerbaijan will already have a problem of returning not only seven,
but more territories. Therefore, according to him, Azeri President
Ilham Aliyev's bellicose statements remain unanswered only because
Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan "is a decent person and does not
wish to damage peaceful settlement of the conflict by making mutual
thunderous statements."
