/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The meeting between Armenian and Azeri presidents in
St. Petersburg on June 9 will not become fateful, NKR President Arkadi
Ghukassian stated in Yerevan to a press conference after having met
with OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel
Moratinos. He said, it will become one of those meetings, during which
the sides will not come to an agreement. "If President of Azerbaijan
Ilham Aliev continues to insist on his variant of settlement, the
conflict will not be solved," Ghukassian underlined.
At the same time the NKR President stressed that the issue of
territories adjacent to NKR is out of the question. "We do not have
occupied territories and we do not have Armenian army here. The
Defense Army of NKR liberated the security zone around NKR the same
army defends those territories. But for some reasons nobody talks
about those 15 percent of Karabakh territories, which up till now are
under Azeri occupation: part of Martouni, Mardakert and the Shahumyan
region. It is necessary to speak on equal terms about this issue,"
Ghukassian said.
