"If Armenia recognizes Karabakh's independence, it may serve as
basis for Azerbaijan to start a war and we will be accused of that",
announced Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan, a politician, pointing out
that it would be better if some other country recognized Karabakh's
independence first. Besides, Melik-Shahnazaryan is convinced that
if Armenia recognizes Karabakh's independence, while the world
accepts Karabakh as a part Azerbaijan, Armenia will be observed as
an aggressor. "In that case it will be better to announce Karabakh
as part of Armenia".
Melik-Shahnazaryan considers Raffi Hovannisian's initiative to
recognize Nagorno-Karabakh of populist character, otherwise, he would
have done it while he was the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Melik-Shahnazaryan does not consider that the Karabakh conflict will be
solved with the support of the Minsk Group Co-Chairmen in the coming
future. He does not bind any particular hope with the official visits
of Co-Chairmen.
"Here they say what we want to hear, in Azerbaijan they say what
Azerbaijani people want to hear, then they leave for their countries
and announce that new proposals and new ideas regarding the conflict
settlement is being discussed", said the politician and added:
"The Co-Chairmen do not know who Turkish people are".
As to the results of discussion on NKR problem in UN,
Melik-Shahnazaryan considers that if the Armenian diplomats present
the problem properly, then the we will win definitely, since the
Azerbaijani part violated the United Nations Security Council
Resolution 4 in 1990s.
It is worthwhile mentioning that this issue is to be discussed at UN
General Assembly on 25 September.
