The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict cannot be resolved by means of war as war will be disastrous for the whole region, Nagorno-Karabakh's Foreign Minister Karen Mirzoyan said in an interview to France 24.
He said that in 1988 Nagorno-Karabakh struggled not only for its reunification with Armenia but also human rights, social and economic equality and safe life. But peaceful demonstrations by students and workers were followed by Armenian massacres in Sumqayit, Baku and Kirovabad and an aggression against Nagorno-Karabakh.
Mirzoyan believes that Azerbaijan must change its position in the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process as it keeps propagating xenophobia and Armenophobia.
Mirzoyan is sure that sooner or later the parties will find a peaceful solution that will guarantee safe and prosperous future for two independent states - Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan, but this will become possible only if Nagorno-Karabakh is involved in the peace process as a full party to it.
