ARKADY GHUKASIAN. NAGORNO KARABAKH WILL NEVER AGREE TO BE PART OF AZERBAIJAN AND WILL NEVER RENOUNCE ITS INDEPENDENCE
"The authorities of Nagorno Karabakh assume the same attitude that the negotiations are to be conducted in three-sided format with full value participation of the representatives of Nagorno Karabakh. It's meaningless anticipating something supernatural from the meeting of the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan in St Petersburg", announced the President of Nagorno Karabakh Arkadi Ghukasian after the meeting with OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Spain Miguel Angel Moratinos.
"The general problem of the conflict is the status of Nagorno Karabakh, and if this problem is not solved yet, there is no question of optimism. If there is no agreement on the status of NKR, it's meaningless to discuss the other issues. There is another version: not to solve any problem, it's also a way of solving the problems. I understand that we cannot demand 100 per cent in the negotiation process. But I want to say again that the most important thing for us is the status of Nagorno Karabakh", mentioned Arkadi Ghukasian.
Anyway, according to Arkadi Ghukasian the present format of the negotiations is not logical: "We speak about the destiny of the people of Nagorno Karabakh, and it's incomprehensible why Nagorno Karabakh does not directly participate in the negotiation process". At the same time, whoever conducts the negotiation process, if it is in the interests of the people of Nagorno Karabakh, it will be adopted.
"Nagorno Karabakh will never agree to be part of Azerbaijan and will never renounce its independence. The rest is the issues of agenda and we are ready to discuss them. Nagorno Karabakh will have the last word on this issue, and our people will never agree with any decision that contradicts the interests of Nagorno Karabakh", announced Arkadi Ghukasian.
What about the fact that Nagorno Karabakh was left behind the negotiation process Arkadi Ghukasian thought that all of them were guilty in it. "We understand that the present format of negotiations will not contribute to the settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict", said the President of Nagorno Karabakh.
To the question of "Azg" daily "How much are the authorities of Nagorno Karabakh aware of the discussed principles and do they agree with them?" Arkadi Khukasian answered that there were no basic contradictions between Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh on the settlement of the conflict. "Nagorno Karabakh has its own attitude, which must be taken into account by the authorities of Armenia. It's not always that we can persist in our opinion", he said.
