Armenia not going to make one-sided concessionsJune 8, 2007 - 16:25 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs say exactly what the audience wants to hear. "Multiversion" of their statements in Baku and Yerevan is conditioned by this fact, political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "You should also take into account "amendments" introduced by the journalists of the conflicting sides. Thus, the reasons of indefatigable optimism of one side and then the other will become quite clear. The things are quite different actually. I will repeat that the main task of the mediators in to prevent resumption of hostilities in the region. It's another matter, to what extent it meets out interests," he said. The political scientist noted that the attitude of the leaders of Armenian states about the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement process attracts interest. "In this context the statements by RA President Robert Kocharian and Prime Minister Serge Sargsyan followed by confirmation of Arkady Ghukasian should calm down the Armenian public. The Armenian sides are by no means going to agree on one-sided concessions. The will of the people of Karabakh cannot be questioned," Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan said.
