Leader of "Fatherland and Honor" party Garnik Margarian thinks the updated Madrid Principles are destructive for Armenia.

"After the Sochi meeting Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the standpoints of Armenia and Azerbaijan on the disputed three issues [Karabakh's sovereignty, date of referendum and Lachin corridor] would be elaborated and subjoined to the pre-agreed protocols. But none of their formulations can help resolve the Karabakh conflict," said Mr. Margarian.

"The key to the conflict settlement lies in the hands of Armenia's legitimate authorities but unfortunately Armenia lacks them. Superpowers will continue to speculate the two versions of the Madrid Principles out of their own interests. Supposedly, Armenian authorities approved of the updated principles in autumn."

Garnik Margarian thinks the upcoming meeting in Washington will bring lucidity to Armenian-Turkish relations, as well as to the Karabakh conflict settlement.

"Serzh Sargsyan will either be forced to sign a document or be subjected to international pressure.

Everyone knows that both the first and second presidents are responsible for the bloody events of March 1, 2008. They stand behind the unrest and murder of the ten victims. The world turned a blind eye to the events as they needed an illegitimate system to turn into a marionette in their hands.

Both the USA and Russia do their best to step the liberated territories but they cannot. Armenians will never let them realize their cherished goal."

Regarding the rumours on Robert Kocharian's return, the colonel found it necessary to remind Mr. Kocahrian of the parliamentary carnage of October 27, 1999, the murder of Poghos Poghosyan in Aragast café in 2001, the ten victims of March 1, 2008 and the existence of political prisoners in Armenia.

If after all these events Kocharian has decided to return to politics it means he has no morality. The public has not forgiven him and he must be punished for his misdeeds. During the ten years of office Kocahrian did nothing for his people. He only deepened corruption, crime and the gap between the public and authorities."
