Democratic Party of Armenia (DPA) developed so-called "Yerevan
Principles" on Karabakh peace process and presented the package
of proposals to RA President Serzh Sargsyan. The document offers a
conceptually new approach to settlement of the conflict, DPA Chairman
Aram Sargsyan told journalists.
"DPA has repeatedly declared its disagreement with some provisions
of Madrid document. Thus, the board of the party decided to present
RA President its own official position on the issue," Sargsyan stated.
The "Yerevan Principles" has three provisions that may foster the
sides to reach consensus.
Under the first provision, the sides should sign a peace agreement
(to be valid till the end of the negotiation process) that will
hold back the parties from use of propaganda - as it provokes enmity
in societies.
The second provides for set up of trust-and-understanding stimulating
programs for societies of the two states.
DPA draws special attention to economic outlook between Armenia
and Azerbaijan, under the third provision, the sides should realize
economic cooperation programs.
Within framework of such programs, Nagorno-Karabakh Republic will be
able to participate in the regional programs and to have an opportunity
of direct contact with Azerbaijan.
