    RIPENS IN ROOT

    Azat Artsakh Daily
    05 March 09
    Republic of Nagorno Karabakh [NKR]

    The Council of Kozma Prutkov is Relevant For The Co-chairs of the
    OSCE Minsk Group In the last day of winter, the co-chairs of the
    OSCE Minsk Group around Nagorno Karabakh Yury Merzlyakov (Russia),
    Bernard Fassier (France) and Matthew Bryza (USA) visited Stepanakert
    in the frame of regional visit.

    On the same day, the meeting of the foreign mediators with the
    president of NK Bako Sahakyan took place, the details of which is not
    open by venture of confidentiality. Co-chairs did not speak about this,
    informing the Press dosated and avaricious information concerning to
    the maintenance of the talk with the president of NKR and the coarse
    of the process of regulation. Very likely, only Russian mediator
    Yury Merzlyakov opened the brackets slightly underlining that the
    co-chairs presented to the governing body of NK new opportunities
    for the process, which, in their appearance, appeared in the result
    of the last meeting of the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan.

    Certainly, it will be interesting to know what kind of opportunities
    and prospect they open for the process of regulation. Especially, in
    the context of recent optimistic announcement of some politicians
    working at the Karabakhian problem concerning to the "golden
    opportunity" for the achievement of the diplomatic break in 2009. In
    particular,20special representative of the Parliamentary Assemble of
    OSCE around NK Goran Lenmarker has recently spoken about good chances
    for the regulation of the conflict. However, the fact attracts
    attention to itself that the optimism of the mediators becomes
    increasingly "careful". Therefore, Yury Merzlyakov said to the
    journalists in Stepanakert "objective conditions have been created
    for the achievement of the regulation, but the subjective ones are
    not exactly absent". It is interesting whether to which conditions
    Russian diplomat concerns the collaboration of the Karabakhian part
    in the process of negotiation, subjective or objective.

    Nevertheless, it seems to the subjective one, because NK remains
    out of the negotiation process contrary to the official documents of
    OSCE. Meanwhile, the question of the participation of Karabakh is by
    no means the idle and the objective (I should underline) and has a
    determinant meaning for the achievement of realistic and i.e. for a
    viable decision of the problem.

    Bako Sahakyan again confirmed the position of the Karabakhian part in
    the meeting with the mediators, which is consisted in the necessity
    for the reestablishment of the full-format negotiations with an
    obligatory participant of NKR in all the stages of the regulation. It
    is notable that in orally the co-chairman of the Minsk Group invariably
    confirmed justice of the given demands of the Karabakhian part, in
    prac tice they have not provided for its realization. It seems, that
    "the subjective factor" of Azerbaijan disturbs them protesting with
    fervour against the return of NK to the negotiating table. To the
    amount of reasons, which are served an obstacle in the way to the
    comprehensive regulation, the circumstance should be concerned that the
    intermediary missions have already tried to eliminate the consequence,
    but not the reasons of Azerbaijan-Karabakhian conflicts. At that,
    in the process of negotiation the mediators speak only about the
    consequences, concerning only to Azerbaijan on Baku's suggestion, for
    some reason forgetting about the Armenian refugees and the Armenian
    territories are being at the Azerbaijani occupation. Nobody argues,
    that the consequences must be removed but at the same time it is
    necessary to observe the priority, in other words not to put a cart
    in front of a horse. Because, without removal of the reasons of
    the conflict, the risk is too big to get hold of consequence again,
    moreover it is more dimensioned. By the way, a Secretary General of
    The Council of Europe Terry Davis also underlined that in any conflict
    one should find a source and carry on a struggle with the reasons,
    which have brought to it.

    As is well known, the reason is concluded in the state politics of
    Azerbaijan directed to the destruction of Artsakh and the occupation
    the Armenian historical territories. Did Aze rbaijan refuse from
    its genocide politics? Unambiguously, no, did not. It means that
    it continues to remain a potential source for the renewal of the
    conflict. Certainly, for the neutralization of this treat, intermediary
    efforts are aimed not only to the chairmanship of the OSCE Minsk Group
    but to all the authoritative international structures. So, in any rate
    they affirm in the corresponding cases. However, their efforts can
    be crowned with success only in that case if a sincere concernment
    in objective one is reinforced by the active discussion of the basic
    question in the process of negotiation, i.e. taking into account
    the free desire of the nation of NK, the settlement of the conflict
    and the establishment of a long time peace in the region. Moreover,
    this is neither removal of the consequence of the conflict nor the
    status of NK, which has already be defined by its people and "worked"
    successfully. This is a security in the basis of reliable guarantee
    of the safety of NK, to the amount of which concerns international
    recognition of the actual independence of the republic. It is obvious
    that any agreement around NK in which the opinions of its inhabitants
    are not taken into account, objective realities and objective reasons
    of the beginnings of the Azerbaijan-Karabakhian conflict are deprived
    of the prospect to be consummated.
