`The document on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict put on the
bargaining table contents Armenia,’ Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan
Oskanian declared in Hague. `The OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs have
proposed a document which we consider logical. If we resolve the issue
in compliance with the document, we shall get a solution that will not
counter our national interests. That means we shall have safeguarded
the self-determination of Artsakhi people, their security, as well as
the unimpeded link between Nagorno Karabakh and Armenia. These three
points are provided for in the document,’ said the Foreign
Minister. Vartan Oskanian added that Azerbaijan continues its military
rhetoric, which exerts negative influence on the atmosphere. `In any
case it does not frighten us at all, does not divert from the path we
have chosen. Our Army, the 15th anniversary of which we celebrated
with luxury, is rather strong, self-confident and well prepared. Our
official stances are firm, and we do not thing at least during the
coming ten years Azerbaijan will dare to undertake any infringement
against Armenia or NKR,’ the Foreign Minister underlined.
