The current talks on the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict are built on Prague principles and cannot last endlessly, since it has a logical end, Director of "Hay Dat" office and head of ARF "Dashnaktsutyun's" political issues department Giro Manoyan stated to a press conference in Yerevan June 12. "It's clear for us that first of all the issue of determining status of Nagorno Karabakh must be resolved, other questions are side issues. Moreover, their discussion is senseless," Giro Manoyan underscored. He reminded ARF "Dashnaktsutyun's" stance: it is senseless to speak about returning territories until the issue of Nagorno Karabakh's status is resolved. And if the basic problem is resolved, the return of territories will be a compromise, which must be realized taking into account security objectives of Nagorno Karabakh and Armenia. Answering the question how recognition of Kosovo's independence may influence on the further status of Nagorno Karabakh, Giro Manoyan stated that recognition of Kosovo will not lead to immediate recognition of Nagorno Karabakh's independence, but it may strengthen positions of the Armenian side at the negotiation process, IA Regnum reports.
