/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Negotiation process on NKR conflict settlement is
already lunched. Several years ago we witnessed meetings between Azeri
and Armenian leaders, but not the conflict settlement process, Head
of Analytical Center for Globalization and Regional Collaboration,"
Stepan Grigoryan told a news conference in Yerevan.
"During negotiations MG OSCE Co-Chairs proposed a new formula for
conflict settlement based on principles of territorial integrity,
right for self-determination and non-use of force. Turkey’s active
participation in the process has also played an important role,"
he noted.
"Armenia and Azerbaijan gave a positive assessment to their meeting in
Prague. Yet, later, the Azeri part, having realized that negotiations
have taken an unfavorable course for Azerbaijan, characterized
Yerevan’s position as destructive."
"The right course would be for Yerevan and Baku to take more
efforts in achieving a peaceful settlement, instead of focusing on
Madrid principles, perceived subjectively on each part – Azerbaijan
supporting the idea of territorial integrity, and Armenia – that of
self-determination right."
"NKR will sooner or later participate in negotiations. Armenia has
to pave the way for NKR’s re-involvement in negotiation process,"
Stepan Grigoryan concluded.
