Azerbaijan presents itself in front of international community as
unconstructive, extremist unit, Bako Sahakyan said in an interview to
"Echo Moskvi" radio station, adding that such approach is unacceptable
for the Armenian party. He said the Karabakhi side has always
pointed out that the conflict must be settled on the basis of mutual
concessions but Azerbaijan understands it in different way. Sahakyan
pointed out that it does not correspond to the spirit of either the
process of negotiations or the peaceful settlement process.
In response to the question about military actions he noted that if
the international community continues non-working way such escalation
of tension is possible.
"International community does not undertake corresponding steps toward
loosening the tension in the region. Though the OSCE Minsk Group
periodically urges the international community to be correct and stop
the hooligan activities and change its policy", the NKR president said.
Speaking about bringing NK over the table of negotiations, Bako
Sahakyan expressed conviction that nothing will be decided with the
awareness of the NK.
Bako Sahakyan considered Armenia and Artsakh a common homeland.
According to him, Armenia is the state which is the most interested
in the recognition of the independence of Karabakh. The leadership
of Armenia has many times noted that the only reason why it has not
recognized the independence of Karabakh is the process of negotiations
within the framework of the OSCE Minsk group. The NKR president said
Armenia is undertaking great efforts for the international recognition
of the Nagorno Karabakh.
