«AZERBAIJAN IS LOST IN ILLUSIONS»
Support A1+!Armenia would be content with the precedent if the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan really positively answered the announcement of the Armenian Foreign Ministry considering is constructive. At least this is what the RA FM press secretary says, as “It could stimulate positive developments in this issue.”
Tair Taghizade, the press secretary of the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan, positively assessed the announcement of RA Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan who said, “If Azerbaijan recognizes the right of the people of Nagorno Karabakh to decide their future status by themselves, Armenia is ready to discuss the issues of eliminating the results of the war seriously”. At the same time the press secretary of the Azeri FM commented that by saying “self-determination” for Nagorno Karabakh, they understand “highest sovereignty” as part of Azerbaijan. This comment gives the RA Foreign Ministry ground to think that there has been no progress.
“As soon as someone speaks about the right of the people of Nagorno Karabakh of self-determination, Azerbaijan starts to nurture Soviet illusions about “highest sovereignty”. The Foreign Minister of Armenia clearly expressed the position of Armenia which presupposes the recognition of Azerbaijan of the right of self-determination of the Karabakh people first, for reaching compromise. Only after that can we discuss the issues about eliminating the results of the war. I am sorry that Azerbaijan is lost in illusions instead of understanding what they see and hear,” said Hamlet Gasparyan, press secretary of the Armenian Foreign Ministry.
