ZURICH, FEBRUARY 2, NOYAN TAPAN. "Armenia’s position on
Nagorno Karabakh settlement is exact and unequivocal: we should
achieve international recognition of Nagorno Karabakh people’s
self-determination right. You can be sure of it: we do not set another
task before us. And the tales some people tried to tell that allegedly
for some purposes and yielding to some pressures we can make one-sided
concessions in the Nagorno Karabakh problem do not correspond to
reality. We cannot sacrifice our national goal, our general purpose for
solving these or those secondary problems," RA President Serzh Sargsyan
stated during the meeting with representatives of Armenian community of
Switzerland in Zurich at the end of his working visit to Switzerland.

Touching upon his meeting with Turkish Prime Minister in Davos and
the problem of Armenian-Turkish relations, he said: "As a result
of the meeting we instructed the Foreign Ministers to continue
the negotiations. And I think establishing normal and civilized
relations between two neighboring states without preconditions
is in our interests. I want it to be clear to everybody here as
well. Establishing relations with Turkey does not mean forgetting
the Genocide, establishing relations with the Turks does not mean
subordinating our national interests to some problems. We have always
said, and now we reiterate that: to establish diplomatic relations
with Turkey without preconditions, to open the borders, to create
an intergovernmental commission, then to discuss any issue existing
between our two states, our two peoples."
