Edward Nalbandyan: "Yerevan wants to see the multinational peacekeeping contingent on the lands, adjacent to Karabakh"

He said that this is an issue, which requires wide discussions not only in Armenia but also in Karabakh. The Minister added that the Armenian leadership is regularly contacting the "NKR" leadership about the said issue.

As for the forecasts that the conflict will be settled in 2-3 months, the Foreign Minister said that such forecasts were made earlier at different levels as well, but none of them came true.

"We will be able to find the solution to the conflict if Azerbaijan demonstrates will and does not hamper the negotiation process by making different statements in all possible structures", said Nalbandyan.

He noted that if Armenia made similar responses to these statements, the negotiation process would have been suspended but "we believe in the effectiveness of negotiations".

Speaking about Armenia's position regarding the composition of the peacekeeping contingent which "will possibly be dislocated in the territories adjacent to Karabakh", Nalbandyan noted that it is early to speak about it but it would be better that the peacekeeping contingent is multinational.
