    KARABAKH'S SELF-DETERMINATION FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE IN TALKS

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The problem of Nagorno Karabakh's self-determination
    is fundamental in the talks, RA Foreign Ministry's Spokesman Vladimir
    Karapetian said.

    He said information published in Kommersant daily with a reference
    to a source close to the talks does not correspond to the truth. The
    package the OSCE MG Co-chairs handed the Armenian and Azerbaijani
    Foreign Ministers in Madrid is "as a matter of fact the same document
    that has been on the table during past 10 years."

    The presentation of proposals in the framework of the session of
    the OSCE Foreign Ministers was meant to lend increasing importance
    to the talks, according to him. He said Armenia will respond to the
    mediators' proposal during their next regional visit which is not
    likely till the yearend, IA Regnum reports.

    Earlier, Kommersant daily citing a diplomatic source reported
    that "Yerevan is supposed to surrender territories around Nagorno
    Karabakh." "Armenian forces will abandon Kelbajar (a small contingent
    will remain) while the way from Azerbaijan to Nakhijevan will be open.

    International administration under the OSCE aegis will be established
    in Kelbajar but will pass to Azerbaijan's full control. The plan,
    however, provides for creation of a corridor in Lachin connecting
    Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh. The liberated territories will
    be demilitarized and international peacekeepers will be deployed
    there. Finally, the international community will encourage settlement
    of Armenians from those territories back to Armenia and return of
    Azeri refugees in several years. The UN Security Council will act as
    guarantor of the peaceful agreement."
