Speaking about mutual concessions or concession to be made by Armenia
is, in fact, a means to preserve the status quo, said former Foreign
Minister of the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh (NKR) Arman Melikyan
at a press conference today while commenting on RA President Serzh
Sargsyan's interview with Kuwaiti daily Al Watan during his recent
visit to Syria.
"Mr. Sargsyan is honest and consistent to the extent that today he has
not said anything that contradicts what he said previously. But that
does not mean he is right and that that political course is correct,
and will bring about positive results," said Melikyan.
According to Melikyan, the policy carried out by Armenia thus far
has been based on the wrong assumption that Azerbaijan may reject
all the proposals, and in that way, Armenia won't have to make mutual
concessions.
Melikyan also said that the regions of Shahumyan, Martuni and Martakert
are becoming bargaining chips.
"Armenia must change the logic of negotiations. The logic of
negotiations forced upon us is working against us today, and any talk
about concessions is destabilizing the situation in Armenia, Artsakh
[NKR] and the liberated regions," said Melikyan.
