If it is possible to solve the Karabakh problem we will have to make concessions", Armenian Defense Minister Serge Sargsian stated when addressing the 3-rd Pan-Armenian Youth Forum. "I formed my opinion long ago and I am convinced that the Karabakh problem can be settled on the basis of compromise only", he stated adding that no single conflict in the world can be settled without compromise. To note, during the parliamentary hearings Serge Sargsian noted that the Armenian party has already made certain concessions and that he is against the return of the territories. However he noted that if Azerbaijan accepts the terms providing for independence of Karabakh from Azerbaijan and gives the guarantees Armenia can revert to the issue of the security belt.
