RA FM: KARABAKH STATUS MAIN ISSUE IN TALKS

“Status of Nagorno Karabakh is the main issue in talks. If it is not discussed, then what is discussed? Both referendum and the nations’ right to self-determination are being negotiated as well,” Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian said. “The parties should meet half-way. We all understand that extremist stands will lead nowhere. A document agreed by all should be prepared. The degree of compromise depends on reality. All should understand which decisions can be passed and which can not. Courage and political will is essential for establishment of peace in our region,” the Armenian Minister said in interview with APA.
