ArmInfo.The formula for the settlement of Karabakh problem, represented by the only structure with an intermediary mandate in resolving this conflict - OSCE Minsk Group (USA, Russia, France) is the right of the people of Artsakh to freely express the will and recognition of this right from all sides, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan stated in an interview with the Iranian IRNA on the eve of his visit to Iran.
At that, President of Armenia highly estimates Iran's support in exclusively peaceful settlement of regional conflicts. "We highly appreciate balanced and principal position of Teheran on Karabakh settlement based on international right norms", Serzh Sargsyan stated.
At the same time, Armenian leader emphasized that the best contribution of each member of the international community to the solution of the Karabakh problem will be the containment of the unconstructive, provocative policy of Azerbaijan and its return to the constructive field through targeted statements and concrete measures on the actions of Baku.
Serzh Sargsyan recalled that in 1915 the Armenian people in Ottoman Turkey became a victim of hatred and xenophobia, then 1.5 million Armenians were killed. "It's unfortunate, but the policy of hatred and xenophobia towards our people continues today, which is one of the main obstacles to the peaceful settlement of the Karabakh conflict," the Armenian leader summed up.
