Yerevan, 22 March: Talks on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict
are continuing and have not reached deadlock yet, Andranik Markaryan,
Armenian prime minister and leader of the Republican Party, told
reporters today.

He said that negotiations on the Karabakh settlement should go ahead
as resumption of hostilities proceeds neither from the interests of
Armenia nor Nagornyy Karabakh. He stressed that one of the ways of
settling the Karabakh conflict is through official recognition of
Karabakh’s independence by Armenia. However, talks are under way for
the time being and it is premature to make serious analyses in that
respect, the prime minister concluded.
