ArmInfo.In the Karabakh issue, due to the shortcomings of the Armenian authorities, factors that limited the country's negotiation capabilities were formed. This was announced on May 11 at the press conference by international expert, ex-chairman of the parliamentary commission on foreign relations Hovhannes Igityan.
Igityan stated that the main Armenian miscalculations began from the moment when the second president of the country Robert Kocharyan began to introduce himself as a representative of both Artsakh and Armenia. Thus, after a while the NKR ceased to participate in the negotiations. "Then the post of the head of state was occupied by a person who came to power through the events of March 1, and he could not represent not only the interests of Karabakh, but also the interests of Armenia itself, while Nikol Pashinyan became prime minister through election by the people. The fact that Pashinyan made his first visit in Artsakh and his statement about the return of the Karabakh party to the negotiating table is extremely important, "Igityan said.
