    AZERBAIJAN'S TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY IS NOT MENTIONED IN MADRID PRINCIPLES

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ "All through the course of negotiations Madrid
    principles could be viewed as a sign of progress, compared with other
    documents on NKR conflict settlement. Still, it doesn't mean there
    are no negative sides to those principles," civil society development
    committee chairman at RA Public Council, Candidate of Philosophical
    Sciences Hovhannes Hovhannesyan said.

    Among positive sides, Hovhannesyan noted, is that Azerbaijan's
    territorial integrity is not mentioned in Madrid principles, as
    Co-Chairs realized that the principle can't be applied in conflict
    settlement. He emphasized the positive fact of NKR status determination
    via free will expression, through plebiscite or referendum. According
    to Hovhannesyan, Azeri part presented distorted facts and off-the-point
    comments while translating the document.

    Madrid principles are unacceptable for Armenia, as the main burden of
    concessions is loaded on Armenia's shoulders. "Madrid principles do
    not state NKR should yield the territories, still in my opinion, it
    wasn't Artsakh who occupied Azeri territories, but just the opposite,
    Azerbaijan is still occupying NKR territories," Hovhannesyan noted.
