Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said international community has
double standards on Karabakh issue.
President gave an exclusive interview to Italy's Quotidiano Nazionale.
Asked about the situation over Karabakh especially in the context of
Azerbaijan's oil factor, Sargsyan stressed that it is an example of
international community's double standards. He recalled that Kosovo
issue unlike Karabakh was resolved.
President believes oil is beneficial for pro-Azerbaijani position.
"But are you sure that the oil issue will always prevail over other
problems?" he wonders.
He recalled the recent reports saying Azerbaijan opposes BP's presence
in the country. "It shows that the balance may change," he added.
Serzh Sargsyan said his position on conflict settlement is rather
optimistic unless Azerbaijan continues pursuing policy of intolerance,
fascism and hatred.
"Fanaticism urged Azerbaijan welcome their compatriot who killed an
Armenian officer and was extradited by Hungary as a hero. The officer
was killed only for being Armenian," President emphasized.
As regards Armenia's position, President Sargsyan said it is in
compliance with the OSCE stance demanding a diplomatic solution based
on the UN Charter and Helsinki Final Act, namely non-use of force,
territorial integrity and nations' right to self-determination."
