Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) authorities have the opportunity to deal with their own rights. Armenia’s Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan said this in a briefing with journalists today.
“Now the authorities of Artsakh have an opportunity and, I think, they are using it in the best way, and they are dealing with their rights. We will all wait, support and see what changes the foreign political vector of the Artsakh Government will experience and where it will lead.
I am very happy that today we have raised Artsakh's role as a negotiator, a direct participant in the issue of Artsakh settlement to the highest level. Now the authorities of Artsakh and Azerbaijan are trying to find some edges of conversation. I don't think that it is necessary to get in the middle of that conversation and play the role of a moderator,” said Simonyan.
Regarding the remark that Artsakh representatives refused to go to Baku, Simonyan said: “If they went to Baku, who would guarantee that those people would come back from Baku?”
Let's remind that the authorities of Azerbaijan decided to invite representatives of Artsakh to Baku for “reintegration” negotiations.
Official Stepanakert announced that meetings with representatives of Azerbaijan can take place through the mediation of Russian peacekeepers and where the previous meeting took place.
