WORLD CANNOT TOLERATE THE UNREGULATED STATUS OF
NAGORNO KARABAKH ANY MORE
`During these 8 years, our authorities have lost the opportunity to
reach peace with dignity in Karabakh conflict regulation. If the same
policy is pursued we have no guarantee that in 2-3 years we will not
appear in more unfavorable situation,’ Suren Surenyants, board
chairman of Republic Party made this statement today at Azdak Club. `I
think 1997 proposal suggested by Levon Ter-Petrosyan was more
favorable for Armenia and Karabakh than the one which is on the table
of talks today. Though it did not fix the idea of referendum, Karabakh
could gain actual independence. Now the idea of referendum is fixed
but in the meantime external governance will be pursued in Karabakh
which will give it little actual independence,’ he said.
Answering to the question why the co-chairs tried to unveil the
details of the talk, Surenyants said, `the world cannot tolerate the
unregulated state of this conflict any more. Pressures on the
authoritarian regimes of both countries are inevitable.’/Panorama.am/
