ARF Dashnaktustyun member Ruzanna Arakelyan isn't that concerned over the Karabakh issue. She is more than confident that the Armenian leadership will never surrender the liberated territories. The Azeri press also instills confidence in her regarding the Karabakh conflict regulation.

“Today the print media and the radical opposition spread panic among the Armenian society connected with the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh issue and Armenia-Turkey relations. They raise rhetoric questions which are a little bit exaggerated and incompliant with the reality. The authorities haven’t even put the issue of the Karabakh conflict on the agenda of negotiations. If you follow the Azeri media you will see that there is no mention of any concession. When speaking about concessions Azeri media mostly quote their Armenian counterparts,” said Mrs. Arakelyan.

Her opponent MP Zaruhi Postanjyan voiced serious concern about the Karabakh issue as a RA citizen, Armenian parliamentarian and a lawyer.

“The conflict will probably be settled soon. The events of this August showed that South Caucasus is constantly on the move. We must be on the alert lest something unexpected should happen. We must estimate the situation in due way. Our high ranking officials also speak about certain concessions and compromises.” We should know what the authorities hint at and the minimum losses Armenian might sustain. It is high time we legally cemented the relations between Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh Republic and constituted the recognition of Karbakh’s independence by the Republic of Armenia.

In reply to journalists' question what the ARF Dashnaktsutyun will do if Serzh Sargsyan makes an unfavourable decision for Armenia, Ruzanna Arakelyan said: “I hope Mr. Sargsyan won't sign any document on surrendering the territories. Anyway, Dashnaktsutyun will not withdraw from the ruling coalition as we find it our mission to protect the state interests. I think none of the coalition parties will take a decision harming the country's statehood. We will never agree to concessions endangering Artsakh's future and the right to sovereignty.
