Those in Karabakh don't understand what new proposals to the settlement
of the NKR conflict can there be if Azerbaijan keeps showing that it
is not going to fulfill its obligations.
After Azerbaijan has grossly violated the ceasefire regime, the
statements by the U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Clinton on the new
approaches to the settlement of the Karabakh issue are out of place,
stated NKR press secretary David Babayan. "The U.S. should give a
more realistic assessment to the situation and change its position
on this issue, which, most likely, will happen", said Babayan. He
thinks that the U.S. should pay more attention to the preservation of
the cease-fire regime, make pressure on Azerbaijan in this direction
and in this case, it is necessary to speak the language of force to
Azerbaijan. "Expression of force may be an adequate rough response by
the Armenian party, just like a clear reaction by the international
community", he noted.
In turn, in an interview with news.am, member of the NKR Public
Council on foreign policies and security Masis Mayilyan noted that the
statements by the State Secretary are the recognition of unreality
of the former proposals, in particular the principles of Madrid and
its elements.
"The OSCE Minsk Group applies old methodology for the settlement of
conflicts, its approaches don't reflect the modern international-legal
realities and the known precedents in the international relations. The
point is about a completely new situation which was forced after the
Kosovo recognition under the sponsorship of the greater part of the
Western countries, as well as the following recognition of Abkhazia and
South Ossetia by Russia. It is evident that the new approaches will be
based on new realities and will bring the peoples of the region closer
to the world co-existence and not to the war", said Masis Mayilyan.
