Madrid principles lead to war
Madrid principles are leading to a war, Armenian bloggers stated at the news conference.
According to Hayk Balanyan, during all these years MG OSCE mission consisted in conflict settlement in the region. Current status quo was suitable both to conflicting parties and mediators. At present the situation has changed: no one is comfortable with status quo, and even less so, USA and Russia, as both states are interested in expanding their influence to Caucasus. "Yet, their interests aren't similar, so a need arises to introduce changes. The only way to change the status quo mechanism is the war," Balanyan said, adding in recent years MG OSCE has been watching the course of negotiations. By approving of Madrid principles, MG OSCE doesn't exclude the possibility of war.
In the joint statement, issued by MG OSCE Co-Chairs on July 10, 209 at the L'Aquila Summit, Basic Principles for settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict are finally specified.
In their declaration, Armenian bloggers announced Madrid principles to be disastrous for RA, Artsakh and the Armenian nation. "Ceding territories, which are a part of NKR and the only real safety guarantee for NKR and RA, return of so called Azeri refugees to Artsakh, as well as allocation of any military force besides RA Armed Forces in NKR, radically contradict the interests of Armenian nation and threaten the future of Armenian statehood," the statement said.
