YEREVAN, APRIL 11, NOYAN TAPAN. Somewhat far-fetched optimism of the
OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen was based not so much on realities as
on their wish.
Vahan Hovhannisian, the RA NA Deputy Speaker, a member of the ARF
Dashnaktsutyun Bureau expressed such an opinion, responding questions
of the “Hot Line” of the “Golos Armenii” (Voice of Armenia) newspaper,
about the forecasts concerning the serious break in settlement of
the Karabakh problem in 2006. “Maybe, straining of their states’
relations with Iran had a role in it, maybe – issues of Turkey’s
entering the European Union,” V.Hovhannisian mentioned. At the same
time, he expressed an opinion, that Armenia must not limit itself
in terms. “Armenia and NKR must come out ecxeptionally of their own
national interests and solve this issue at that time and in the way,
when and how it will be profitable,” the RA NA Deputy Speaker stated.
