SOME STEPS MUST BE TAKEN JUST NOW

After the meeting with the NKR high-ranking management, RA President R.Kocharian had a short-term talk with representatives of mass-media. What will R.Kocharian be occupied with after expiring the date of presidency?: naturally this was one of the first questions. “I haven’t had clear decisions yet, I have decided to interrupt a little”,- the answer proceeded. A whole range of questions has touched upon the negotiating process of Karabakh conflict settlement. Can last armenian events influence on this process? “Not yet, but I dont think, that they will try to use these events”, - noticed RA President. “Though, not directly. If Armenia goes out weakly from these events, it will be more appreciable. Weak suggestions are also represented to the weak”. Though in this question R.Kocharian is optimist. “I believe, that from this examination Armenia goes out more strengthened:some steps connected with Karabakh must be taken for showing this firmness”. What was the negotiating process at the beginning of R.Kocharian’s presidency and what is it today? “ When I was elected a President, the Karabakh problem in negotiating process was being observed in Azerbaijan’s circles. Let’s say identicaly, that during these years I haven’t discussed the Karabakh problem on the strength of Azerbaijan by any status, - assured RA President, - Today’s document doesn’t suppose such a thing, and the whole substance of these approches is a recognition of the right to self-determination”. Azerbaijan’s warlike announcements compel, that Republic of Armenia thinks over its position. “There are two variants: either immediate recognition or signing of treaty between NKR and RA concerning defence sphere.... Such treaty will have a preventive role in the direction of preventing warlike announcements. But I don’t exclude also the recognition,- emphasized R.Kocharian, - I don’t exclude, and more, I consider, that some steps must be taken just now”.
