RPA Faction head Galust Sahakyan considers yesterday’s statements by
Azeri FM Elmar Mamedyarov to be the victory of the Armenian democracy.
To remind, yesterday Elmar Mameduarov stated that Armenia will return
7 Azeri regions and the terms are being fixed. When responding to
A1+’s question whether it is possible that the conversation concerning
the return of the territories really took place Galust Shakian said,
“I do not think so, I suppose that his statement is connected with
the upcoming parliamentary elections in Azerbaijan. In this view the
diplomatic elite should count with the opinion of the international
community, which does not consider that Armenia should return the
territories. He says, that Armenia still in 1994 ceded two territories
as well as Martunashen, where Armenians lived. I think Armenia will
make no other concessions. The status of Karabakh should be determined
first of all”.
ARFD member Armen Rustamian said he does not trust either Azeri
political figures or mass media. He rules out the possibility of
retuning the territories without determining the status of Karabakh.
Chairman of the Commission on Defense said they do not possess any
information on the issue.
Justice faction deputy Shavarsh Kocharyan says that Armenia would
better present some explanations.
