Coming to preliminary agreement over the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
is possible before the presidential election in Armenia, Armenia's
Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan said in an interview to Reuters.
"I do not think the presidential election could influence the
negotiation process. I am sure we can come to a common denominator
on a number of certain issues," the prime minister is quoted as saying.
Acknowledging that he is running for presidency to replace Robert
Kocharyan, who is now terminating his office, Serzh Sargsyan noted
that this would not influence the effort in coming to an agreement
with Azerbaijan. "I am not a newcomer in the politics and in the
Armenian government. I have been taking part in all developments
especially concerning the Nagorno Karabakh conflict all the time,"
Sargsyan said adding he had "a good command of all details and today,
when new proposals are coming, there is my consent there, too. That
is why I do not think that the presidential election can hamper the
negotiation process," he is quoted as saying by Radio Liberty.
Serzh Sargsyan gave an interview to a number of foreign media during
his work visit to Brussels and Strasburg.
The presidential election in Armenia is to be held on February 19,
2008.
