The format of the talks does not reflect the essence of the Karabakh
conflict, stated Georgy Petrosyan in his address at the U.S. Institute
of Peace.
"The present format does not reflect the real essence of the conflict
because Azerbaijan refuses to negotiate with Nagorno Karabakh,"
said Georgy Petrosyan. According to him, Azerbaijan has transformed
the opportunity of a legal resolution of the conflict since 1988,
forcing it into the ethnic-political level.
Speaker Ashot Ghulyan presented the legal aspect of the conflict and
announced that Nagorno Karabakh realizes the vital interests of the
United States and other countries in the region, expecting that these
countries will recognize the interest of Karabakh as well.
