Karabakh conflict
According to politician Suren Zolyan, the Armenian side is concerned
about the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs' recent statements, as the
superpowers incline to stand up for the Azerbaijani territorial
integrity, in which they see Karabakh as well. Besides, according
to the politician, the Minsk Group aims at combining territorial
integrity and self-determination of nations, which means autonomy.
"Matthew Bryza said that the Azerbaijani president made a progress in
negotiations promising autonomy to Karabakh", Mr. Zolyan mentioned. He
reminded that Azerbaijani former president Heydar Aliyev made similar
promises as well, and it means that those promises does not mean any
progress in the Azerbaijani position.
Today the most important thing, according to Zolyan, is that we
should remind of the supremacy of the right to self-determination,
legal principles that were formed at the time when the Armenian and
Azerbaijani independences were recognized, and Karabakh should be
recognized based on the same legal rules.
"Taking into account the changes in the world we should review our
approaches", the politician added.
Suren Zolyan touched upon "Echo Moskvi" radio-station interview with
Matthew Bryza, where the latter had announced that the liberated
territories should be returned to Azerbaijan stage by stage. The
politician mentioned that by making similar statements the US Co-chair
is acting out of Minsk Group bounds and that it is an information
sabotage.
What about the "Road map", Zuren Zolyan mentioned that if before it
was spoken of preconditions, today more euphonious variant is chosen
- "Road map". According to the politician, we should remember that
Turkish constitutional structure is different and the leader of its
leading party Erdogan has very clearly stated that Armenian-Turkish
relations should not be improved in prejudice of Azerbaijan.
