ArmInfo. The Madrid principles are not acceptable for the Armenian side, as the basis for the settlement of the Karabakh conflict. This was stated at the rally in Kashatag by Araik Harutyunyan, the chairman of the largest parliamentary party of Artsakh (the Nagorno Karabakh Republic) "Free Motherland", adviser to the President of Nagorny Karabakh on special assignments.
He recalled that he spoke about the inadmissibility of the Madrid principles while still being Prime Minister of the NKR. "Unilateral concessions in the Karabakh issue are not acceptable, there are no liberated or" occupied "territories - there are borders of the Artsakh Republic outlined by the Constitution and blood, which is a free and sovereign state," Harutyunyan said, while emphasizing that Artsakh is an integral part of Armenia.
"The Armenian and Artsakh authorities in this direction are carrying out a coordinated policy, and for our homeland we must always be ready to fight," said Harutyunyan, stressing that the ongoing reforms in Armenia will only strengthen the positions of the Armenian side in the negotiations on the Karabakh conflict settlement .
