ArmInfo. The "Kocharyan-Serzh regime" has failed in all respects. This
regime has gained impressing success only in one thing - robbing its
own people, Levon Ter- Petrosyan, the first president of Armenia,
leader of the oppositional Armenian National Congress (ANC), said at
today's rally of his supporters.
The ex-president thinks that there is unprecedented panic in the
ruling regime's camp for two reasons: full inability to correct the
economic situation in the country and growth of social tension, as
well as the current disastrous situation in the Karabakh peace process.
L.Ter-Petrosyan pointed out that at the moment it is senseless to
speak of the Armenian-Turkish process as the latter depends only
on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict, to be more precisely,
on the real progress in the peace process.
By saying serious progress the OSCE MG co-chairs imply the return of
five districts to Azerbaijan. But the other no less serious questions
- deployment of peacekeeping forces, Lachin corridor regime and final
status of Nagorno-Karabakh - are still unclear. In fact, the Armenian
side is making serious concessions in exchange for empty promises.
The interim status for Nagorno-Karabakh might be considered as a
worthy concession by Azerbaijan but nobody explains what this means.
There is no need for explanations. In fact, this means just recognition
of the Nagorno-Karabakh authorities. The interest of Azerbaijan and
TUrkey in the renewed version of the Madrid principles makes things
even worse for the Armenian authorities.
