Armenian authorities should break off the negotiations based on
Madrid Principles on Karabakh conflict settlement, the more so as
Baku presented this possibility to Yerevan on a platter by its warlike
statements, said Democratic Party leader Aram Sargsyan at the Nov. 27
press conference in Yerevan.

According to him, Madrid Principles contain not only the issues on
Karabakh status, but also necessity of territories’ return. Thus,
when Armenian authorities assure that talks are held on status only,
it means the accord on the rest points is already reached. This proves
that Armenian side backs this policy, otherwise it would terminate
the negotiations referring to threats by Baku. "Yerevan acts like
an aggressor. Can’t they say: "Yes, the territories were occupied in
the course of the war unleashed by Azerbaijan, and we do not return
them both as they are a security zone and there are over 500.000
Armenian refugees, that should get compensation from Azerbaijan,"
stated Sargsyan.

In view of the above mentioned, he maintained that it is necessary to
refuse Madrid document and recognize the fact of Karabakh independence
from Azerbaijan. Then, we need to determine NKR status or recognize
its independence, or else claim about Karabakh’s joining Armenia.
