Vice-Chairman of the RA National Assembly Samvel Nikoyan said that he
estimates negatively the statement of Armenia's first president Levon
Ter-Petrosyan during the 16th congress of the Armenian National
Movement that Armenia's development is impossible without the
Armenian-Turkish normalization and Karabakh conflict settlement.
The statement weakens the foundations of the Armenian state,
Nikoyan told a press conference in Yerevan. "Turkey conditions the
Armenian-Turkish border opening by NKR's surrender to Azerbaijan. In
other words, the current stance of Armenia's first president on the
Karabakh conflict does not differ from the one presented in his famous
article - War or Peace," said Nikoyan.
"The statement was a message for the first president's allies that his
stance on the Karabakh conflict remains unchanged and active actions
should not be expected of him. In other words, Levon Ter-Petrosyan made
it clear for his allies that he wants to retire," concluded Nikoyan.
