"RA Presidnet has clearly presented his stance on the Karabakh issue
from very high platforms. It is for sure that there has never been
any shift either in the position or in the format of activity. The
President’s positions remains unchanged," said Garnik Isagulyan,
Assistant to RA President on National Security Issues, excluding the
hearsay that a non-beneficial agreement for Armenia was signed during
the latest meeting between the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan.

According to him, the forthcoming Constitutional Referendum in NKR
proves once again that it a more full-fledged and democratic state
than some other countries in the region. "The world also recognizes
that the Nagorno Karabakh Republic is a full-fledged state, and
imposing something to it is very difficult and can have unpredictable
consequences," the Adviser underlined.

Garnik Isagulyan is confident that there is no political struggle
in Armenia, since "the political forces have not comprehended that
for leading a firm struggle they should come forth with alternative
platforms."

Speaking about the National Security Strategy of Armenia, the Adviser
noted they tried to create a document that would proceed from our
reality and which clearly formulates the internal and external threats,
challenges and the mechanisms for countering these. Garnik Isagulyan
said that after investigating the experience of 30-40 countries, it
became clear that that we need to have strategy rather than law. "In
this changing world we need to respond very rapidly and implement
corresponding changes, therefore for assuring flexibility we needed
to elaborate a strategy, Mr. Isagulyan said.
