ArmInfo. Whoever is the Armenian president, he will have a dominant
position over the NKR authorities, Armenian presidential candidate,
ex-Foreign Minister of Armenia, ex-Advisor to the NKR president Arman
Melikyan said at a press conference at the "Mirror" club, Monday.
Asked about the possibility that the team of the first Armenian
president Levon Ter-Petrosyan will come to power and the "security
belt" territories will be returned to Azerbaijan, Melikyan said: "I
don’t think that in the present conditions, if Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s
team comes to power in Armenia, authorities will be found in the
NKR who will be able to withstand Armenian authority’s decisions,
including the decision on returning the territories".
According to him, whoever is the Armenian president, he will have a
dominant position over the present NKR authorities: "This is a reality,
which must be taken into consideration". Asked if the NKR authorities
will be able to oppose Armenian authorities’ decisions, Melikyan said:
"Supposedly, yes. But I don’t still know such a fact".
