YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 26, ARMENPRESS. Without the clarification of Artsakh’s status no settlement of the NK conflict can happen, caretaker Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in a speech during the campaigning rally of Im Kayl (My Step) bloc in Ani, Shirak Province.

“The Karabakh side must return to the negotiations table. There can’t be a settlement of the Karabakh issue without a clarification of the status of Karabakh. There is no difference up to even a millimeter in the desires and intentions between our people and the government in the Karabakh issue. This is a matter of pan-national responsibility,” Pashinyan said.

He said that first of all it is necessary to create a respective budget for solving numerous issues.

“We can’t solve the issue of Armenia, the issue of Artsakh and other issues with the budget that we have today. Our country is a home, we are one family, when a family has financial limitations, it sits down and makes a decision, and they decide to work together. We must work together for the revenues of our family and country to grow. We must be a strong and happy people,” Pashinyan said.
