    YEREVAN. - International recognition of independence of Artsakh
    (Nagorno-Karabakh) is inevitable, said Armenian President Serzh
    Sargsyan to the meeting with Armenian MFA central staff and heads of
    diplomatic missions abroad.

    "This year we witnessed how Southern Sudan gained its independence
    after decades of struggling, adding one more precedent to
    implementation of the right of self determination. In case of
    Artsakh, similar resolution is inevitable, although I cannot say
    that Azerbaijan softened its position in the settlement process,"
    said President Sargsyan.

    According to him, "we reached an important level, when the intermediary
    countries and the international community expected that agreement
    over at least the basic principles is near."

    "In this context, Kazan meeting proved a touchstone that estimated
    the sincerity and perseverance of both sides to resolve the conflict
    through peaceful negotiations as soon as possible. As Kazan experience
    showed, Azerbaijan made a step back, refusing to find a general ground
    and creating new barriers for further agreement," added Armenian
    president. "Now, I am sure that everyone is interested in our next
    steps and expectations. Irrespective of Azerbaijan's destructive
    behavior, Armenia will continue its efforts towards exclusively
    peaceful settlement of Karabakh conflict based on the principles
    reflected in international law and UN Charter. Let no one doubt that
    our position is unbending and clear. We have a red line that that we
    can never cross."

    Sargsyan stressed that Baku is not ready for peace, since it is
    impossible to build peace, preaching warfare.

    "It is impossible to reconcile societies, disseminating hatred towards
    Armenians and build confidence, instigating a race of army equipment.

    This position of Azerbaijan is unacceptable and we shall take relevant
    steps. Believe me, in the event of military conflict Armenia will not
    hesitate to impose a new peace to the opponent," noted the President
    of Armenia.
