19:26, 26 December, 2012
YEREVAN, DECEMBER 26, ARMENPRESS: On December 26, a press conference
of NKR Foreign Minister Karen Mirzoyan took place at the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, with the
participation of representatives of the local mass media, as well as
foreign journalists accredited in the Republic.
As Armenpress was informed from the press service of NKR MFA the
press conference was aimed at summarizing the Foreign Minister’s
100-day activity and the year of 2012.
According to the NKR Foreign Minister, the most important political
event of the year was the July 19 presidential election representing
an important stage in the state-building process and confirming the
steadfast democratic development of the Republic, which was also
noted by the international observation missions.
Speaking of the Karabakh conflict settlement process, the Minister
regretfully stated the lack of sufficient progress, mainly due to the
destructive position of official Baku actually driving the negotiation
process into a deadlock. In this context, Mr. Mirzoyan noted the pardon
and glorification of the Azerbaijani insidious killer, Ramil Safarov.
The Minister called the Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict settlement
through peaceful negotiations and the achievement of the international
recognition of the NKR the basic goal of the Karabakh diplomacy.
Mr. Mirzoyan gave comprehensive answers to various questions of
the journalists related, in particular, to the current stage of the
Karabakh conflict settlement process and the impact that the global and
regional processes have on it, to the activities of the NKR Missions
to foreign states, to various humanitarian issues arisen as a result
of the military aggression of Azerbaijan against the NKR.
Minister Mirzoyan noted that all the issues within the Karabakh
conflict settlement required a comprehensive and package solution. In
conclusion, the NKR Minister of Foreign Affairs noted the importance
of continued cooperation with the mass media.
