Armenian deputy: "No Armenian powers will ever be able to turn Karabakh issue into a trading object for settlement of any other tasks"

David Arutyunyan, head of the Armenian delegation in PACE and deputy of Armenian parliament from the ruling Republican party does not see any connection between the process of talks on Nagorno Karabakh and discussion of the issue of possible deprivation of Armenia of vote in PACE, said Arutyunyan in a response to the statement of Armenian opposition that the powers of the country are ready to make concessions in the Karabakh issue in exchange for the preservation of the right to vote in PACE.

Commenting on the statement that the Armenian delegation in PACE were even given due instructions, Arutyunyan noted that "this also does not correspond to the reality".

In turn, deputy of the Armenian parliament and member of the "Flourishing Armenia" faction Naira Zograbyan said such statements of opposition are illogical and untimely.

"I would recommend to the political powers, which try to win in the Karabakh issue in the framework of their political games and calculations, not to do it. No power of Armenia will ever be able to turn Karabakh issue into a trading object for resolution of any other tasks and such talks are dangerous", said Zoghrabyan.

The deputy will attend the PACE January session within an Armenian delegation, instead of the leader of Heritage opposition party Raffi Ovanisyan, who refused to participate in PACE session.
