07 July 2006 [20:03] - TODAY.AZ
"There are principles, unacceptable for Armenia, in the framework agreement, presented by OSCE MG co-chairs to the parties of Karabakh conflict.

"But if we categorically reject it, it will give Baku a new ground to accuse Yerevan that it is not ready for talks," such opinion was expressed by Yerevan Valery Bryusov Linguistic University Rector Suren Zolyan during a press conference in Yerevan.

According to him, the most positive outcome of declassification of document (made by Matthew Bryza), which lies on negotiating table, is fact that society is finally fully involved into Nagorno Karabakh negotiating process and, as events have shown, it is ready to discuss the problem.

"Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement is the problem of the whole our nation; the more we will be consistent the more positive will be changes in the question. Statement, which is not quite acceptable for us in such raw state, showed that our society is ready to discuss the problem, as well as authorities, which represent people," the university rector resumed.

New US Co-Chair of OSCE Minsk group on Nagorno Karabakh settlement Matthew Bryza declassified content of the document, presented by mediators to two presidents. The agreement envisages normalization of Armenian-Azerbaijan economic and diplomatic relations.

The framework agreement appeals to withdraw Armenian troops from Azerbaijani territories, where they are deployed now.

Other theses include in particular deployment of peacekeepers, international economic support of Nagorno Karabakh, economic development, and finally at some stage, voting on Nagorno Karabakh future status is envisaged.
