/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Karabakh conflict will not be resolved without
mutual concessions, RA Defense Minister Mikael Harutyunyan told
reporters on Monday when commenting on Azerbaijani President's
statements as regards the main principles of the Karabakh settlement
and ongoing speeches about Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.
`The issue won't be settled without mutual concessions, we
say. Azerbaijan will get no other territories controlled by NKR army,'
the Minister said.
The Minister said `if Azerbaijan wants to clear up the matter with
several regions around Karabakh, it should compromise.' `Armenia will
never make one-sided concessions and the Azeri side is perfectly aware
of this,' he added.
Besides, the RA Defense Minister said that Azerbaijani President's
militant statements are inadmissible, since `he holds talks with our
President'. However, such conduct is not a novelty but a continuation
of Azeri propaganda, he added.
`I suppose if they were to carry out their aggressive tasks they would
have done it long ago. Knowing the efficiency of the NKR and Armenian
armies, Azerbaijan does not take action. If it does it will receive
what it deserves,' the RA Defense Minister said, Novosti Armenia
reports.
May 4 Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev said `there is an agreement on
stepwise return of 7 seized Azeri regions with further resettlement of
refugees to their lands.' At that he said the proposals were admitted
both by Armenia and mediators. Aliyev said the status of Nagorno
Karabakh `may be considered within Azerbaijan's territorial integrity
only. At that Azerbaijan is not against deployment of peacekeepers on
the territory.'
