Baku assumes the illusion, accepting its perverted approaches as the
final and decisive stage of talks, Armenia's Deputy Foreign Minister
Shavarsh Kocharian told Interfax.
Referring to the statement by Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliev that
the process of settlement to the Karabakh conflict has entered its
final phase, Shavarsh Kocharian said that this demands on the sides'
readiness for compromises.
"Azerbaijan isn't fully ready for compromises. On the table at the
meetings is a single document, accepted by Armenia and Azerbaijan as
a basis for negotiations - the Madrid Document of 2007," he said in
an interview.
"If Azerbaijan wishes to move forward, then this will demand on talks
on controversial issues, but not refusal from the document's principles
through distortion of its essence," said Shavarsh Kocharian adding
that to reach an agreement is possible "if Azerbaijan stops moving the
talks into a blind alley by its continuous distortions of the issue,
reasons of war and the problem itself.
