Nagorno Karabakh status primary, Lennmarker says

21.03.2005  

YEREVAN (YERKIR) – The OSCE rapporteur on Karabakh has reaffirmed
that the region’s status is primary, National Assembly Vice Speaker
Vahan Hovhannissian told a news conference on Monday.

According to Hovhannisian, Goran Lennmarker has also said that the
Azeri arguments regarding the refugees and territories are secondary.
Hovhannisian briefed the reporters about the Armenian delegation’s
meetings with the Azeris in Brussels.

He also indicated that during the discussion of the issue, the Azeris
unsuccessfully tried to include “Atkinson provisions” in the report.
They also tried to set the next meeting in London, probably hoping
to get backing from the British.

This proposal was also denied, Hovhannisian said. The Armenian
delegation has also met with the NATO Secretary General’s special
representative in the Caucasus and the regional director of the
“Wider Europe: New Neighborhood” project to discuss joint projects.
