PM: only int’l recognition may change status quo in NKR

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno Karabakh Prime Minster believes the republic’s involvement in the conflict settlement negotiations in the OSCE Minsk Group format non-crucial, with no prospect for a possible solution outlined.

As Ara Harutyunyan stated during the meeting with the Hayastan All Armenian Fund representatives, “the possibility of a solution in the near future unlikely, current settlement talks are mostly formal, aimed at preservation of regional peace.”

However, he said, as Stepanakert repeatedly remarked, the final solution of the Karabakh conflict is impossible without the republic’s participation.

“Azeri leadership’s statements lead us to believe that no progress in the conflict settlement s to be expected. Karabakh, however, continues developing and promoting its national goals,” he said, adding that only international recognition could bring a change in the status quo, Karabakh-open.info reported.
