/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Madrid principles take Yerevan and Baku back to
1991’s status quo, an expert at Armenian Center for National and
International Studies, Manvel Sargsyan told a news conference in
Yerevan. "The international community has to understand that the only
solution to NKR conflict is the acknowledgement of its independence,"
the expert noted, once again reminding of Baku’s uncompromising
position.

Dwelling on RA-Turkish relations, Manvel Sargsyan stressed that
NKR conflict settlement issue is not discussed within RA-Turkish
rapprochement frameworks. "We’re currently viewing the process
of intensified contradictions between Ankara and Baku. Should the
differences hold, Baku could turn to Russia with a request to station
RF peacemaking forces in Karabakh."

Manvel Sargsyan did not preclude the possibility of Turkey’s unilateral
recognition of Karabakh’s independence.
