`The negotiations on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict will
continue on the basis of the Madrid Principles,' ex-Foreign Minister
of Nagorno Karabakh Masis Mailyan said, recalling that these
principles contradict the interests of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
That is why the ex-Foreign Minister expects new proposals from the
Minsk Group Co-Chairs.
The meeting of the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan is Sochi was
the continuation of the existing process, which means that
Azerbaijan's attempts to refuse from the process of coordination of
the principles and proceed to the development of the peace treaty have
been void, Mailyan said.
`The mediators should come forth with new approaches, which will take
into consideration the contemporary legal realities, and the new
precedents that exist in international relations,' he said.
Commenting on the commitment of the parties to enhance humanitarian
contacts, the political scientist said he hopes Azerbaijan will not
try to turn these into inter-community contacts.
`If the Presidents really want to use the contacts between societies
of the two countries to relieve tension, and to reinforce confidence,
this can only be welcomed, but the mistakes of the past must not
repeat,' he said.
According to Masis Mailyan, Azerbaijan prevents the investigation of
incidents at the line of contact. He recalls that is because of the
Azerbaijani side that the 1995 document signed by representatives of
Nagorno Karabakh, still remains on the table.
`Azerbaijan has not yet refused from its policy of military blackmail.
Under these conditions any meeting of the Presidents, even without the
participation of Artsakh, is positive,' Masis Milyan said.
