ONLY WAY OUT OF THIS MESS IS ARMENIAN PRESIDENT'S RESIGNATION: IGITYAN
Tert.am
17:14 ~U 07.04.10
Asked whether Armenia is obligated to sign the Madrid Principles
on NKR conflict resolution, Pan-Armenian National Movement member
Hovhannes Igityan answered the question with a question: "But is the
proposed document advantageous for Nagorno-Karabakh, in fact?"
According to the former chair of the parliamentary Standing
Committee on Foreign Relations, the Armenian public doesn't know
what Nagorno-Karabakh's leadership and public want or which version
of the resolution they prefer.
Igityan said, according to him, a resolution to the NKR issue is close;
however, it's not beneficial for Armenia. In his opinion, the situation
is unpromising for Armenia also in the Armenia-Turkey rapprochement
process. "The Armenian-Turkish process is quite unfavourable for
Armenia, but withdrawing from that promise would be more difficult,"
he said.
Turning his attention to the likelihood of ratification of the
Armenia-Turkey Protocols, Igityan noted that the parties will ratify
those documents if they are seriously placed under pressure. At the
same time, Igityan drew attention to the fact that the atmosphere
surrounding this Armenian-Turkish process is so poor that Protocols
ratification cannot serve its true purpose, which is establishing
diplomatic relations and opening the Armenia-Turkey border.
In Igityan's opinion, the way out of withdrawing from the situation
created by both the Armenian-Turkish and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
resolution process is the resignation of Armenia's president.
