"The Nagorno Karabakh leadership once again displayed its good will
and agreed to host the intelligentsia representatives of Armenia
and Azerbaijan, headed by Ambassadors of Armenia and Azerbaijan to
the Russian Federation Armen Smbatyan and Polad Byul-Byul Oghly,
as well as RF MFA Special Missions Ambassador, RF President's
Special Representative on Cultural Issues Mikhail Shvidkoy, thus
reaffirming its principal allegiance to the Karabakh conflict
peaceful settlement process," NKR Ministry of Foreign Affairs said
in a statement, commenting on the comments by the Azerbaijan party,
including the officials of the Azerbaijani Republic, on the recent
initiative of the Armenian and Azerbaijani intellectuals, which
provide misinterpretation of the events."As to the certain differences
concerning the Azerbaijani delegation's visit itinerary and members,
the Karabakh party did not only demand to change the itinerary, but
also to exclude the Azerbaijani Milli Mejlis Deputy, Khavva Mamedova,
and the delegation member, Chingiz Ismailov, out of the delegation
for their obvious anti-Karabakhian and anti-Armenian position.Taking
into consideration the Azerbaijani party's interest in the visit,
it is easy to guess that official Baku tries to drastically change
the format of the negotiation process and to negotiate directly,
without any mediators, with the NKR authorities, which has no
alternative. Taking into account the incentives of such mutual visits
aimed at reducing the tension between the societies involved in the
conflict, the event is worth noticing.This visit is especially notable
in the sense that the Azerbaijani intelligentsia representatives,
having visited our country, evidenced once again that they deal with
an existing state, where, for the period after the proclamation of
an independent republic, overcoming the difficulties and obstacles
arisen as a result of the Azerbaijani aggression, the imposed war,
and the blockade, unprecedented progress in all the spheres has been
fixed, which created the best preconditi ," NKR MFA statement reads.
