Today two representatives of the Crisis Managing group met the
journalists in hotel Congress to inform them that they have prepared
the first report about the Karabakh conflict. The report will be
presented on Wednesday.

The main theme of talk of the deputy head of the group Alain Deletroz
was that the parties must put an end to the preaching of mutual hatred
and hostility and meet each other half way, taking any step for the
peaceful settlement of the conflict.

“The parties have never been so close to the peaceful settlement of
the conflict as now. If there is the wish to settle the conflict,
the sides must do everything proceeding from the present state of
things”, stressed the deputy head of the Crisis Managing group.

Years ago the first President of RA Levon Ter-Petrosyan announced
that there will be no more a suchlike chance to settle the conflict,
but the powers which were not ready for compromise realized revolution
in the country. Asked the question if in case of missing this chance
the current authorities will be deprived of chair, the head of the
Crisis Managing group answered laconically, “There is only one thing
I can say: the Karabakh conflict must be settled now”.

During the press conference he periodically reminded the journalists
that they are investigating about 44 suchlike cases of conflict that
they now only two ways of settling them – the military way, and the
compromise way.

Alain Deletroz also said that they have met with the Azeri Mass
Media and our neighbors were more passionate. He told the Armenian
journalists, “If you preach all day that the Azeris are your enemies,
it’s clear that the society will never be ready for normal relations
with them”. He also informed that he is aware of Azerbaijan intending
to make its military budget equal to the Armenian state budget.

He also made another interesting remark about the Armenian-Azeri
relations, “The fact that peace has been kept in the front line for
more than 10 years without the interference of international peace
detachments, testifies to the fact that the Armenians and the Azeri
are able to take joint actions”.
