Vardan Oskanyan, Armenian Minister of Exterior, said in Yerevan today,
quoting, “if Azerbaijan recognizes Nagorno-Karabakh’s people’s right
for independent identification of their future status, Armenia is
ready to make serious conversations on resolution of war consequences.”

Mediamax agency reports Armenian Minister of Exterior said today on
a news conference ion Yerevan that this was Armenia’s position for
conversation process.

Commenting on the last news about arbitrators’ “new offers”, Oskanyan
said this notion is ‘right and wrong at the same time’.

“The document that states resolutions principles is on the table.

Some principles have led to mutual agreement and some have not. I guess
when arbitrators say “new offers” they actually mean new formulations
for the principles we did not agree on. The principles as such do
not change”, – Minister explained.
