YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 28, ARMENPRESS: Each conflict is peculiar, US
Ambassadot to Armenia Marie Yovanovitch said today at the meeting with
the professor staff and students of the Yerevan State University, in
response to the question whether she sees any similarities between
the Nagorno Karabakh and Kosovo conflicts. "As you know Kosovo is
under the UN sponsorship while the NK is not, and I can find many
such differences," the ambassador said, adding that any negotiation
process over conflict is also peculiar.
According to her, the negotiations must not be held over the
similarities or differences between the Nagorno Karabakh and Kosovo
conflicts but it is necessary to think what happened in Karabakh and
what it is necessary to do for its settlement.
"I think you all will agree that the NK issue has only a political
solution: it may be settled through negotiations which demand
concessions from both parties," Yovanovotch said. She said the
peaceful settlement of the conflict stems from the interests of not
only Armenia and Azerbaijan but the people of Nagorno Karabakh.
