The Karabakh conflict will be settled only when the two societies are
ready to live side by side without war, in a friendly atmosphere,
President of the Democratic Party of Armenia Aram Sargsyan told
a press conference today. He is assured that the meetings of the
Presidents of the two countries can continue for 10 years, marking
no serious breakthrough.
"The core issue of the negotiations is the status of Nagorno
Karabakh. If the issue of status is not solved, no other question
can be settled. No one doubts about the participation of NKR in
the negotiations, and this is going to be the main topic of the
negotiations. It should participate in all stages of the talks,"
Aram Sargsyan said.
As for the requirement to return the liberated territories, the
leader of the Democratic Party considers it is unserious. "I think
that Azerbaijan should be more troubled about the territories than
Armenia. We are simply trying to justify ourselves because of the
incorrect policy of our authorities," he said.
According to Aram Sargsyan, Ilham Aliyev made a great mistake in
Moscow. "The leaders of South Ossetia and Abkhazia were sitting at
the same table with the CIS Presidents. In fact, Azerbaijan directly
recognized the independence of those countries," Aram Sargsyan
stated. According to him, Ilham Aliyev will have great problems with
the Georgian President and the people of his country. "Whatever,
this was a memorable moment in the Moscow meeting," he said.
