    SERGE SARGSIAN: "ONE NATION-TWO STATES" MODEL IS BENEFICIAL FOR THE
    ARMENIAN PARTY"

    YEREVAN, MARCH 31, NOYAN TAPAN. The Karabakh conflict settlement is
    possible only in a peaceful way and on the basis of mutual
    concessions. Serge Sargsian, the RA Defence Minister, the Chairman of
    the Security Council attached to the President of the country, made
    such a statement on March 30. Listing those concessions, which the
    Armenian party may make, the Minister mentioned, that Armenia
    considers as a fundamental concession the fact that Armenia hasn't
    recognized the NKR independence up to now, though the latter was
    created in legal way and has existed as an independent democratic
    country for many years. "It is a display of kind will in order to
    assist the process of peaceful settlement in the framework of the
    Minsk group," the Minister mentioned. Reminding the principle placed
    in the January 25 resolution of the PACE, that separation or gaing
    indepedence of territories from any country must be implemented via
    expression of will of people living in that territory, S.Sargsian
    mentioned, that as the second concession, the Armenian party may agree
    for another referendum to be held in the territory of the NKR, which
    will be organized under the protection of OSCE and UN. According to
    the Defence Minister, the third concession is that the Armenian party
    may begin negotiations around the security zone of Karabakh. "I am not
    a supporter of returning the territories forming the security zone
    without taking into detailed account the promblems of the NKR
    population's security," he stated. According to him, some concessions
    may be made through negotiations, provided that the Azerbaijani party
    gives clear guarantees of non-resumption of war, confirmed also by
    guarantees of authoritative international organizations and
    states. According to S.Sargsian, in the strategical sense "one united
    people and two states" model is beneficial for the Armenian party: it
    will allow the RA and the NKR to be represented parallelly and to
    closely cooperate in the international structures. The usage of the
    model will also exclude the charges of the NKR annexation addressed to
    Armenia. The Minister mentioned that the leaders of Azebaijan and
    Turkey have stated many times that the mutual relations of those
    countries are built one the principle "two states - one
    people". Really, after the World War I, the Turkish people was
    self-determined by creating two states, and there are many similar
    examples in the international practics, S.Sargsian emphasized.
