Armenian president touched on Karabakh issue.

Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said one-sided concession is out
of question regarding the Karabakh issue with Azerbaijan.

Speaking to Armenian state channel, Sargsyan described the comments
of some political powers in the country as distorting the truth.

The Armenian leader said the issue could only be solved if the Armenian
people in Karabakh are given the right to determine their own future.

Sargsyan further underlined that they will not make any concessions
on the land frontier between Armenia and Upper Karabakh and an
international guarantee over Karabakh people.

Upon a question regarding the agreement signed with Azerbaijani
President Ä°lham Aliyev under the host of Russian President Dimitri
Medvedev on November 2 in Moscow, Sargsyan said this was the only
document in which Azerbaijan undertook some responsibility for the
solution of the issue through political negotiations.

Claiming that the occupier administration in Karabakh should also
be a party in negotiations, Sargsyan said the solution could not be
reached otherwise.
