YEREVAN. - Freedom of maneuver in negotiations between the Armenian
President Serzh Sargsyan and his Azerbaijani counterpart Ilham Aliyev
is reducing, Armenia's First President, opposition Armenian National
Congress (ANC) leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan said at the rally in the
Liberty Square on Tuesday regarding the joint statement by the U.S.,
French and Russian presidents on Karabakh conflict made on June 18
in Mexico.
"Despite Russian, U.S. and French presidents seem to have regretted,
but they are really insulted by the fact that Sargsyan and Aliyev
do not take 'decisive steps,' which means do not react to their
statements," the ANC leader said.
Ter-Petrosyan quoted an article published in May, where the Minsk Group
despite having worked on the conflict settlement for 20 years achieved
no substantial results. International community gave an opportunity
to the Armenian and Azerbaijani authorities to decline from direct
responsibility. At the same time and despite both authorities expressed
readiness for making a progress, they blamed the third side for the
lack of it. Taking into account that both authorities do not reject
mutually exclusive maximalist demands, the mediators should stimulate
the conflicting sides for signing the agreement.
However, nothing is informed on the agreement, which puts forwards
serious concessions for both sides.
