Karabakh peaceful resolution possible, RA PM saysDecember 20, 2007 - 14:45 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "The potential of peaceful talks on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement has not been exhausted yet. It's important for Armenia to recognize the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, which for its part should recognize the right of Karabakhi people to self-determination," RA Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan said at a meeting with EU Envoy for the South Caucasus Peter Semneby."Presidential elections in Azerbaijan and Armenia should not hamper the negotiations. Candidates should not conceal their views from the publics because of the fear to lose supporters. Positions should be voiced precisely," he said. "The European Union is interested in maintenance of previous achievements for efficient continuation of talks. I concluded that Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev sees resolution of the conflict after the presidential elections in both states," Mr Semneby said for his part.
