"We should fluently refuse Madrid principles and present Yerevan
principles to the OSCE Minsk group co-chairs", which, after meeting
an approval, can be discussed as new conceptual approaches to the NKR
settlement issue", – stated the leader ADP Aram G. Sargsyan noticing
that "Just refusing is not good."

He informed that Armenian Democratic Party is going to send a
letter-apply to the RA President. In the upcoming days it will also
be presented to the public.

As to A. Sargsyan, none of the Madrid principles are acceptable
for Armenia.

Answering the question of Aysor.am why he thinks that Azerbaijan will
agree to discuss the new principles suggested by Armenia A. Sargsyan
answered, "If the Azerbaijani wish to come to come to terms with us,
they have to stop being enemies with us."

According to him when the two nations are enemies and when Azerbaijan
tries to present the Armenians as enemies to its own nation it means
that there cannot be any understanding. A.Sargsyan is sure that at
first Azerbaijan should forget the hostility.

Coming to the regional issues A. Sargsyan stated that "RA MFA is
frightened. If regional problems are being discussed Armenia has to
present its regional pretensions to Azerbaijan. Nakhijevan, except
all the regions that are left within Azerbaijan’s territories, can
no way be considered Azerbaijani territory."
