Member of the Armenian delegation to NATO, representative of the
Heritage faction of the National Assembly Stepan Safaryan does not
predict NATO's involvement in any conflict in the Caucasus. "NATO
avoids it," Stepan Safaryan considers, noting that the Alliance would
have interfered in the issue long ago if it wished so.
"We stand against NATO's peacekeeping mission, and generally,
any peacekeeping mission, if the issue is going to be partly
solved. Judging from the content of the publicized principles of the
Karabakh conflict settlement, the Armenian authorities agree to a
partial solution, and in this situation we can do nothing but agree to
the deployment of peacekeeping forces, be it NATO, CSTO or whatever,"
Stepan Safaryan said.
Republican MP, member of the Armenian delegation to NATO Karen Ayvazyan
emphasized that Armenia just cooperates with NATO, while it is a full
ember of the Collective Security Treaty Organization. The Deputy does
not share the views of his opposition colleague.
"They have made no statements regarding the Karabakh issue. They just
support the statements and principles of the Minsk Group. They have
left the issue to the OSCE Minsk Group. Today NATO faces a number of
challenges and has a number of problems to solve, " Karen Ayvazyan
said.
