PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia should not expect positive developments
from Madrid principles on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement
and the OSCE Minsk Group's activity, according to Ashot Manucharyan,
the former member of Karabakh committee.
"In 1992, Armenia entered the negotiations process of the OSCE MG,
which was only within the interests of U.S., and was not advantageous
either for Armenia, Artsakh or even Azerbaijan," Manucharyan told a
press conference in Yerevan.
"Armenia was an active negotiator before, but now it merely reacts
to the actions of world powers, becoming a "ground for other players."
The country is on the way to catastrophe unless it changes its position
in talks," he said.
Manucharyan also commented on the forthcoming trilateral presidential
meeting in Kazan, Russia, saying that no real progress is expected. He
underlined the role of Iran in Karabakh process, which, according
to him, created new factors enabling to maintain the status quo in
the region.
