"To briefly characterize the 15-year cease-fire, it is extension of
the Karabakh statehood’s formation and alignment of a dynamic system,
which has proved its vitality so far", stated NKR Foreign Minister
Georgy Petrossian in his interview to the NKR Public Television Vestnik
(Reporter) program.
"Surely, there are things, which are not going in the way we’d ideally
like to, but I believe that we have succeeded in solving the most
fundamental issues, such as creation of an army – one of the most
important security guarantees, and alignment of a domestic system of
state administration. All this, actually, took place in the conditions
of war and post-war armistice", noted the NKR Foreign Minister.
At the same time, Georgy Petrossian emphasized that for the Karabakh
party, the future status of Nagorno Karabakh was the keystone to
the settlement.
