First Condition For Conflict Settlement Is Peaceful Process – DPA

FIRST CONDITION FOR CONFLICT SETTLEMENT IS PEACEFUL PROCESS, INVOLVING
GREAT NUMBER OF ASPECTS, DPA CHAIRMAN SAYS

YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 1, NOYAN TAPAN. Today, on the background of
absolutely contrasting positions of Azerbaijan and Armenia, any
breaking of the status quo will bring to disbalance. Aram Sargsian,
the Chairman of the Democratic Party of Armenia (DPA) stated about it
to the Noyan Tapan correspondent. In his opinion, if enmity between
Armenians and Azeris is kept, any solution with help of any compromise
variants will not bring today to peace, the conflict will just be
suppressed, but not finally. In Aram Sargsian’s word, the first
condition for the Karabakh conflict solution is a peaceful process
which must involve in itself a great number of aspects, involving
readiness of elites and societies, what does not factually exist at
present. He mentioned that elites and societies would be ready only in
the case when rulers will lead policy aimed to peace. At the same
time, in his estimation, policy of the heads of Armenia and Azerbaijan
is a brake on the way of the conflict settlement. "It’s a policy of
postponing, inactivity and compressing of the situation. Meetings
between the two presidents are not negotiations, but talks of two
people, having power, and no more. The negotiations will start only
when corresponding dimplomatic missions and working groups are formed
which will work on getting agreement on a definite block of issues,"
the DPA Chairman stated.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
