The Armenian side will reconsider its strategy, in case the OSCE
format of the NKR issue is changed into that of the UN. Armen
Martirosian, Permanent representative of Armenia at UN, said this
in the interview to Regnum agency. According to him, in this case,
NKR should be represented as a separate party in conflict, besides,
the strategy of Armenia may change.
On the other hand, unless there is no formula, there is no need to
talk about that. The issue is included in the UN agenda, but it is not
a resolution yet, though renamed into "The Situation in the Occupied
Territories of Azerbaijan."
It’s worth mentioning that this resolution renamed wasn’t acceptable
for Armenia, though it contained good intentions to preserves the
ecological balance of the territories mentioned. Armen Martirosian
didn’t specify in which direction the strategy and the tactics
of Armenia may change in the settlement issue of Nagorno Karabakh
conflict.
As Armenia talks of the formulae included in the UN agenda, Azerbaijan
stated about its political, economic and cultural unification with
the Turkish world. Azeri president stated that they will never let
a second Armenian state shape in the territories of Azerbaijan.
We wonder, perhaps, it’s high time to talk of the Republic of Nagorno
Karabakh and not of the second Armenian state shaped in the territory
of Azerbaijan.
