After the first conference of young officers in various branches of
the Armenian military, President Sargsyan denied reports that the
international community had stepped up pressure on Armenia to reach a
compromise solution to the Karabakh conflict.
"We are doing everything to reach a peaceful solution of the matter
and the process is continuing. What is more important is that talk
about pressure being exacted is an exaggeration. The Minsk Co-Chairs
are trying to bring the positions of all sides closer together,"
President Sargsyan noted.
He said the process was a difficult one and that Armenia never
expected it to be easy.
"Our position is clear but it's not easily accepted by the other side.
We are doing all in our power to reach a just solution. The more
officers like you in our ranks, who are confident and combat ready,
the better our negotiating position will be," concluded the president.
