    Serzh Sargsyan: Destiny of Nagorno Karabakh will be decided solely by
    people of Artsakh

    This in non-negotiable: the destiny of Nagorno Karabakh will be
    decided solely by the people of Artsakh, Serzh Sargsyan stated at the
    RPA 14th Convention, adding that another essential element of secure
    Motherland is the peaceful resolution of the Artsakh problem.

    `The Nagorno Karabakh problem must be solved exclusively through
    peaceful means, through negotiations. At the same time, we are ready
    for a staunch putdown of any reckless scheme or encroachment, which
    may endanger our security,' said the country's leader.

    The President highlighted that considering Azerbaijan's destructive
    policy, persistent propagation of hatred towards Armenians, daily
    threats to use force, we will continue through all possible means to
    enhance security guarantees for Nagorno Karabakh and its population.

    The President said that the Armenian side will carry on with the
    process of negotiations. `Expressing our gratitude to the Co-Chair
    states of the Minsk Group for their efforts towards the peaceful
    resolution of the conflict, we will at the same time continue to draw
    the attention of mediators and the international community to
    opportunities for the establishment and strengthening of confidence
    building measures, which could be helpful towards a peaceful
    resolution. Azerbaijan's policy in general and, particularly, their
    refusal to withdraw snipers, refusal to put info force a mechanism for
    investigation of border incidents, the glorification of a murderer,
    inducement of xenophobia and racism, unreliable and hypocritical
    stance during negotiations are not conducive to the establishment of
    confidence building measures and, if left unchecked, will exacerbate
    the situation in the entire region.'

    Serzh Sargsyan stressed that `it would be reasonable and natural if
    Artsakh came to the table of negotiations as soon as possible, thus
    our efforts will be aimed at the expeditious resolution of that
    issue.'

    `Effective negotiations in a constructive atmosphere will become
    possible only when the parties to the conflict genuinely want to reach
    a just resolution of this issue, abandoning baseless maximalist
    claims,' he concluded.
