ArmInfo. All the sides on Karabakh conflict settlement perfectly understand that the issue is not that simple, particularly considering the position of Azerbaijan which practically does not aim at peaceful settlement of the conflict, Deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia Shavarsh Kocharyan on November 23 stated after the session of the Government, commenting the words of Russian Foreign Minister that it is not worth expecting fast settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. " Baku tries to keep status quo in every possible way" Shavarsh Kocharyan stated.
According to the Deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia, in order to register the progress in negotiation process, mutual trust should be developed between the sides, which is still unavailable for today. "The atmosphere of confidence implies the implementation of those events, which were announced in Vienna and St. Petersburg," Kocharyan said, recalling that as early as 1995 Azerbaijan committed to implement measures to implement investigation mechanisms at the contact line.
According to the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, if Baku adheres to the position "either all or nothing," then naturally, the outcome of the talks will be negligible. "Unless Baku's position changes, it is not worth waiting for progress in the negotiation process," Shavarsh Kocharyan said.
