/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The main goal of the Moscow declaration on the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict is to strengthen Russia's positions in the
Caucasus, Kiro Manoyan, ARF Dashnaktsutyun Bureau's Hay Dat and
Political Affairs Office Director, told a news conference today.
The declaration has both positive and negative features and proceeds
from the interests of certain forces, according to him.
`The most negative fact is the absence of an NKR representative's
signature on the document. The necessity of continuation of talks on
the basis of the OSCE MG Madrid principles also arouses concern, since
these principles envisage surrender of the liberated territories,' he
said.
`Positive factors are affirmation of peaceful talks as the only way to
resolve the conflict and no mention of Azerbaijan's territorial
integrity. Besides, the declaration states that talks will be
continued in the framework of the OSCE MG and thus excludes
interference of other forces into the process,' he said, adding that
Turkey's attempts to join negotiations can jeopardize their success.
`The Karabakh problem will be resolved in case all parties to conflict
sign a peaceful agreement which will be implemented with the help of
appropriate mechanisms,' Mr. Manoyan resumed.
