Zory Balayan, expressing his opinion to the journalists about the
meeting, particularly said: "In soviet years such meetings were not
only traditions, but they took a practical turn. The friendship
begun in 1989-90-91 with russian intelligentsia today is still
being continued: bygone memories have remained, but we may say,
approaches, philosophy have been changed. In that case the anxiety of
the NKR President, that the collaboration is not so profitable, we may
understand". In his turn the chair of russian association of Armenian
friedship and collaboration Viktor Krivopuskov, trying to soften
the anxiety of the NKR leader, represented the novelties of russian
literature, which would favour the recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh,
particularly the works of Artsakh poets published in last number of
"Literaturnaya gazeta". The same day the guests met with the primate
of Artsakh diocese of Armenian Apostolic Church Pargev Martirosyan,
visited military units of the NKR Defence Army.
During our talk with the representative of russian intelligentsia,
the well-known publicist, the best friend of Artsakh Andrey Nouikin
other questions were also touched upon. - Mr Nouikin, the aim of
the recurrent visit to Artsakh. - I never miss the opportunity
for visiting once again Artsakh, an d as you see, I'm again in my
native land.Such short-term visits , of course don't give practical
opportunities, they remind tradition much more, for what I'm here now.
- What questions have been discussed with NKR President? - They have
had to do with mainly the collaboration with creating intelligentsia.As
you know, in the stuff of our deligation many correspondents and
writers from russian different newspapers and periodicals have come ,
so such meetings pursue an aim of establishing relations with them,
deepening the collaboration and relations being before that. And a
form of deepening the relations will be the articles. which will be
published in russian press henceforth. - After the events taken place
in South Ossetia and Abkhazia, how does the russian intelligentsia
look at Karabakh problem? - Russian intelligentsia has followed
the conflict from the beginning, and has great expectations about
positive solution of the problem. we may say, that these expectations
are much, than Karabkhian people have. I think that Russia never lets
such tragic events take place in Nagorno-Karabakh. From the other
hand, we know well the power and possibilities of Karabakh army.
- Each time when you visit Artsakh, do you notice a progress? -
Of course. Each time there have been joyous circumstances, which
testify about the development and progress of the country: beauti
ful buildings, well-building streets...anyway, the progress of life
is noticeable. - What wishes can you send to Artsakh people? -
To be self-confident and keep high the spirit of '88
