/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Nagorno Karabakh people’s right to
self-determination is the key issue in the Nagorno
Karabakh settlement and it is irreversible, Armenian
FM Vartan Oskanian stated in an interview with
Armenian Shant TV Company. In his words, Baku will
touch upon the issue willy-nilly, `as it is a matter
on the agenda and Azerbaijan is under much pressure
regarding that question.’ At that Vartan Oskanian
added that the link between the right to
self-determination and the moment of final solution of
all aspects of the conflict should be outlined today.
`If we formulate that link in a correct manner and
come to a compromise solution, the process can be
moved. Otherwise, it will mean, that Azerbaijan
remains on maximalist positions and no progress will
be made in the NK settlement,’ the Armenian FM said.
Armenia has made its part of concessions and it was
not easy, he emphasized. `I do not know how our people
will take it,’ Oskanian remarked.
