YEREVAN, JULY 12, ARMENPRESS: Armenia despite Azerbaijan does not
issue military statements and does not say during the last five years
has increased its military budget 20 times and does not reject the
proposals of international community. Armenpress reports that such
declaration made Armenian Foreign affairs minister Edward Nalbandian
during the joint press conference with the OSCE Secretary General
Lamberto Zannier. "Today the position of Armenia is consistent of the
position of international community which was expressed many times by
the leaders of Co-Chair countries, particularly the last announcement
was in Las Cabos" mentioned Nalbandian.
In Nalbandian's words after each such declaration Armenia sounded an
adequate reaction and Armenia is ready to go towards the settlement
on the basis of those suggestions. "Up to today we do not here
such readiness from Azerbaijan on those declarations. They take
any provision and pretend that have this or that opinion of the
international community. Meanwhile, international community has a
clear opinion that the use of force will not lead to the settlement
of the conflict and the new use of force will be strictly condemned"
highlighted Edward Nalbandian.
>From Azerbaijan come radical expressions. "It formed the situation
that today exists in Azerbaijan when most part of the public opinion
is inclined to war. I do not think that many people are inclined
to war in Armenia. The overwhelming majority of the population in
Armenia is inclined to peace" summarized Armenian FM.
Lamberto Zannier mentioned that OSCE supports the process of
establishing peace but it is important that the sides express
readiness. "It is necessary that everyone accepts the necessity of full
peace. Of course, it is good that the sides are around the negotiating
table but we would like to see more involvement in public sphere"
said OSCE Secretary General.
