/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "One of the major obstacles on the way of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflicts settlement is the fact that Azerbaijan
considers military resolution of the problem as an alternative to
the negotiation process, RA Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian stated.
He said, Baku tries to refuse from some agreed issues.
"One more reason for impeding the negotiation process is the fact that
Azerbaijan adheres to hard-edged positions on several issues. Tough
public statements in Azerbaijan and actions of that country in a number
of international organizations are not concordant with the content of
negotiations. We have repeatedly stated that it is impossible to reach
agreements on the problem based on compromises without eliminating
those obstacles," Vartan Oskanian underscored.
The RA FM thinks that Baku’s tough position works against the country,
which realizes that there is no military solution to the Karabakh
problem.
"I want one more time to assure the Armenian nation that we will
not speak about side issues without securing the right of NK people
to self-determination.
Territorial issues concern the security of Karabakh population. All
other statements of the Armenian side have always been prudent and
concordant with the letter and spirit of today’s negotiation process,"
Oskanian stated in the interview to "Kentron" TV Company.
