Leader of Armenian Democratic Party: "One day Armenia will reject talks with the country, which is threatening with war every day"

In November of 2007 OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs presented basic principles of the peaceful resolution of Nagorno Karabakh conflict for consideration to presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan in Madrid.

"Though we are persuaded that they contain favorable elements for Azerbaijan I would like to say that the idea of holding referendum on the status of Nagorno Karabakh can not become the most important for adoption of principles, Azerbaijan is setting before us, particularly, of return of lands and deployment of international peacekeeping forces in this area", said he during a press conference.

According to Sargsyan, adoption of these principles would mean that Armenian side will obliterate the 20 year lawful way to Nagorno Karabakh independence and start everything anew.

In this connection, Sargsyan noted that the opinion that Azerbaijan's bellicose statements are made for domestic consumption is wrong as this position has already become the position of the whole Azerbaijani people, considering Armenians to be their enemies.

"This is not a casual propaganda and we should take such actions, which would neutralize this process", noted the party leader.

In this connection he does not rule out that Armenia may one day reject talks with the country, which is threatening with war and calling "Nagorno Karabkh Republic" an occupied land.

"This means that we failed to present our position to the world society in the duly manner, especially, regarding independence of Nagorno Karabakh", announced Sargsyan.
