    `Prepared to Respond to Karabakh Encroachment Through Tough Measures,'
    Says Sargsyan

    Tert.am
    15:45 - 28.11.09


    Making a speech at today's governing Republican Party of Armenia
    convention, RA President Serzh Sargsyan, among other issues, referred
    to the process of settling the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and
    Armenia-Turkey relations.

    On both issues, the Armenian president reiterated his previously
    announced position: noting that Armenia would like to settle the issue
    of Nagorno-Karabakh through peaceful negotiations.

    `Armenia is for the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict through negotiations, though we will not allow any sort of
    encroachment whatsoever on the matter and we are prepared to respond
    to any such assault through the toughest measures,' noted Sargsyan.

    The president once again emphasized that settlement of the conflict is
    an extremely complex process, and it might take years to reach a final
    settlement.

    `Though in conflict settlement's refuge today, I am filled with hope
    that we can reach a logical conclusion within a reasonable timeframe.
    As with Turkey, so with Azerbaijan, we consider our national and state
    interests to be above everything else, and we are going to be decisive
    in our relations, in the issue of seeing this process through till the
    end,' said Sargsyan, adding that `gone are the times of people being
    colonized, living on their own land.'

    `We have firmly announced to the world, that the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict settlement must anchor man and Nagono-Karabakh people on the
    collective will of the reflection of independence. Only in that case
    can the solution be long-lasting, feasible and peaceful. The agreement
    among all the parties of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict must, in one
    package, include the solutions of all the issues and those mechanisms,
    inscribed by international requirements, which guarantee the
    implementation of those solutions,' concluded Sargsyan.
