HHK reiterating Azerbaijan’s viewpoint?

Politics


Member of the Armenian National Congress (HAK) international relations committee Georgi Avetisyan says the Armenian government should specify whether Serzh Sargsyan is going to present himself as the person occupying the post of NKR President or as Serzh Sargsyan from Karabakh.

"In this case, if the sides discuss a document in Kazan and come to terms, there will not be any other version to discuss. I don't see Bako Sahakyan in this process," Georgi Avetisyan today told "A1+".

He is concerned about the fact that the sides may sign an agreement with the Madrid Principles at its core. "The NK doesn't exist as a state in the Madrid Principles."

Avetisyan also doesn't understand the statements by the Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) according to which the NKR should participate in the process when they don't even present the mechanism.

"The meeting is tomorrow and the sides are likely to reach an agreement, but the Armenian authorities say the NKR should participate in the process just one or two days before the meeting. The Azerbaijani say the NKR should participate in the process with the status of an observer and state that that will happen after Armenia and Azerbaijan come to terms on the Basic Principles."

By saying the Republican Party of Armenia (HHK), the HAK representative means the authorities since, according to him, they are de facto responsible for everything.

"I don't rule out an agreement on the Basic Principles during tomorrow's meeting. The agreement will lead to the development of a huge document, after which it will no longer be possible to fix the situation."

Touching upon Vardan Oskanyan's latest statement that Serzh Sargsyan had to give explanations to the people of Armenia before leaving for Kazan, Georgi Avetisyan said:

"Vardan Oskanyan doesn't have the right to make such statements because the Madrid Principles were put into circulation three years ago when he was still the foreign minister. That was the result of his and Kocharyan's failed policy. In this case, Serzh Sargsyan is not the cause, but the effect."
