YEREVAN (YERKIR) – No matter how beneficial a certain solution of
Kosovo problem in the UN Security Council may appear to us and to our
case, we are firm believers in the distinctiveness of each conflict,
its dynamics and its conditions, Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan
Oskanian stated speaking in the OSCE Permanent Council’s session. He
said, Armenia has no problem expressing her views as to the limited
value of precedents.
"However, it is ironic that those who oppose one "size fits all"
precedents are disingenuous in bundling together four "frozen"
conflicts elsewhere.
Further, more than just arguing against precedent, GUAM is attempting
to prejudge the outcomes of other conflicts, specifically ours,
by creating mechanisms, through resolutions and other actions,
to block the natural progression of our negotiations process,"
Oskanian stressed.
The RA FM underscored the international community must be alert to
the disingenuousness of such efforts. He said, this is not a zero sum
process – where a successful self-determination process for Kosovo
necessarily means that all other self-determination processes must
be quashed, artificially.
"Armenia remains committed to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict negotiated
solution, and we will continue to pursue a fair resolution that will
guarantee the people of Nagorno Karabakh security and the right to
determine their own future," Vartan Oskanian stressed, the RA MFA
Press Office reports.
