ArmInfo.. Today there are no prerequisites that would say that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict will soon be resolved. Armenian ex-Minister of Defense, Lieutenant- General Vagharshak Harutyunyan stated this at a press conference in Yerevan on March 13.
"Today's reality is that the parties are negotiating not around the settlement of the conflict, but around what negotiations should be, and this is objective, since there are no prerequisites for resolving the problem in the foreseeable future," Harutyunyan said.
In this context, he recalled that conflicts are resolved in two ways - military, with full surrender of one of the parties, or through peaceful negotiations. However, according to the expert, Azerbaijan is not ready to follow the negotiation path. Harutyunyan recalled that all three Armenian presidents expressed readiness to negotiate on the principle of status in exchange for territories. "What is Azerbaijan's response to these proposals?" He says that Karabakh is mine, the territories around Karabakh belong to me, and Yerevan is mine too. "What negotiations can we talk about? There are no negotiations, and there can not be in the foreseeable future," the ex-defense minister summarized. Armenia.
