NKR OFFICIAL SAYS STEPANAKERT SUPPORTS STATUS QUO SHIFT
May 31, 2013 - 14:49 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Nagorno Karabakh authorities perceive Russian
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov's statement on the inadmissibility
of the preservation of status quo as normal, head of the Central
Information Department of the Artsakh Republic President's Office said.
"We, too, want a shift in the status quo and a final resolution of
the conflict, however the sides see the settlement of the problem
in a different way. Azerbaijan wants a return to the period before
1988, which is impossible. We believe that Azerbaijan and Artsakh
must recognize each other," David Babayan said.
"Different solutions to Nagorno Karabakh issue were offered in the
20th century. The current option at least allows for the preservation
of NKR security," Mr. Babayan said, describing Lavrov's statement as
a call for intensification of the negotiation process.
Dwelling on Russian arms sale to Baku, he noted it as mere business,
voicing confidence for the maintenance of the balance of power.
