    EDUARD ABRAHAMYAN: POLICY CAN'T BE BUILT ON BARE TRUST

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Different though in phrasing, statements of both
    Russian Premier and Foreign Minister supported the idea of RA-Turkey
    rapprochement and Karabakh conflict settlement issues having to be
    resolved separately, chairman of Neo-conservative Movement of Armenia,
    Eduard Abrahamyan said, commenting on the statements of Vladimir
    Putin and Sergey Lavrov.

    "Washington, as well as Moscow, adheres to the idea of resolving the
    two issues separately. We have only to believe in the truthfulness
    of those statements, yet policy can't be built on bare trust. Best
    criterions for political statements are actions, fortifying those
    statements," NMA chairman told PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

    The Protocols aimed at normalization of bilateral ties and opening of
    the border between Armenia and Turkey were signed in Zurich by Armenian
    Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and his Turkish counterpart Ahmet
    Davutoglu on October 10, 2009, after a series of diplomatic talks
    held through Swiss mediation.

    On January 12, 2010, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of
    Armenia found the protocols conformable to the country's Organic Law.

    The Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR) is a de facto independent republic
    located in the South Caucasus, bordering by Azerbaijan to the north
    and east, Iran to the south, and Armenia to the west.

    After the Soviet Union established control over the area, in 1923
    it formed the Nagorno Karabakh Autonomous Oblast (NKAO) within the
    Azerbaijan SSR. In the final years of the Soviet Union, Azerbaijan
    launched an ethnic cleansing which resulted in the Karabakh War that
    was fought from 1991 to 1994.

    Since the ceasefire in 1994, most of Nagorno Karabakh and several
    regions of Azerbaijan around it (the security zone) remain under the
    control of Nagorno Karabakh defense army.

    Armenia and Azerbaijan have since been holding peace talks mediated
    by the OSCE Minsk Group.
