"It is for the first time in 17 years that Azerbaijani delegation
overcomes a certain psychological barrier and crosses a real border
existing between the parties to the Karabakh conflict," Head of the
Delegation of Azerbaijani Intellectuals, Ambassador of Azerbaijan to
Russia Polad Bul Bul oglu said in NKR town of Shushi. The Ambassador
arrived in NKR together with the Armenian Intellectuals headed by
Armenian Ambassador to Russia Armen Smbatyan, ArmInfo's special
correspondent to Stepanakert reports.
Ambassador Bul Bul oglu said that representatives of both parties
demined the relevant area on the boundary for safety of the
delegations. "This situation is becoming unbearable," the Ambassador
said. He also added that intellectual people in Europe have united
and become world citizens. As a result, no borders have been left in
Europe. He expressed hope that the Armenian and Azerbaijani peoples
are "wise enough to break the situation and settle the conflict by
peace methods, through negotiations and compromises to live together,"
the Ambassador said.
For his part, NKR President Arkady Ghoukassyan said: "We have no
guarantees that these meetings will become traditional as there is
no relevant atmosphere and there are too many disagreements." He
stressed the importance of such visits for peaceful settlement of the
conflict. "Our Azerbaijani colleagues who are now in Karabakh share
the given opinion. We will not be able to create an atmosphere of
mutual trust and will be far from the settlement if we fail listening
to each other," the president said.
To recap, on June 28, the Azerbaijani delegation crossed the
preliminary demined section of the contact line of NKR and Azerbaijani
Armed Forces, near Martakert-Terter (Mir Bashir) road. Official
representatives of Karabakh received the Azerbaijani delegation in
the field of NKR Defense Army and accompanied them to Stepanakert. A
delegation of Armenian intellectuals headed by Armenian Ambassador to
Russia Armen Smbatyan also visited the capital of NKR. Both ambassadors
initiated the visit.
