    "THERE IS A RED LINE WHICH WE'LL NEVER CROSS", THE ARMENIAN PRESIDENT STATES

    Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan stated today that "there is a red
    line" in the issue of Karabakh settlement "that we'll never cross".

    Speaking at the meeting of the Central Office of Foreign Ministry and
    heads of Armenia's diplomatic missions abroad, the President said that
    "everybody saw how Southern Sudan gained independence this year after
    decades of struggle", Mediamax reports.

    "The same outcome is unavoidable in case of Artsakh even though we
    can't say Azerbaijan has moderated its stance", said Serzh Sargsyan.

    He noted that "the sides reached an important line in the summer:
    the mediator countries and international community expected us to
    reach agreements on at least key principles of the settlement".

    "In this respect, the meeting in Kazan was a kind of a touchstone to
    assess the sides' determination and sincerity. We saw that Azerbaijan
    made a step backward in Kazan by refusing to come to an agreement
    and putting new obstacles into the process", stressed the Armenian
    President.

    The Armenian leader said that "irrespective of Azerbaijan's destructive
    stance Armenia will keep on making efforts (as before) to settle the
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict in an exclusively peaceful way based on the
    norms of international law and principles reflected in the UN Charter".

    "Nevertheless, let nobody doubt our determination: we have a red line
    that we will never be able to cross. We spoke about these both in
    public and during meetings with our partners. It is reflected in my
    pre-election program and numerous statements. Baku is not ready for
    peace as it's impossible to set peace by advocating a war; to reconcile
    societies by sowing Armenophobia; build trust by instigating race of
    arms. Such behavior demonstrated by Azerbaijan is unacceptable and we
    will make adequate steps. Be sure - in case of a new military adventure
    Armenia will again coerce the rival to peace", stated Serzh Sargsyan.
