/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Member of Republic opposition party Suren Surenyants
said the Karabakh conflict will remain unsettled unless public both
in Armenia and Azerbaijan renounce "Karabakh is ours" wording.
"Armenia can’t be independent unless relations with Azerbaijan
and Turkey are settled. The republic can’t survive under the
circumstances," he told a news conference.
Surenyants is convinced that resolution of the conflict is possible
only in case of mutual concessions. "If we have to cede the territories
liberated during the war in exchange for security guarantee, we should
agree," he said.
Asked by a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, who will act as the guarantor of
security, Surenyants voiced confidence that the document to be signed
by Armenia and Azerbaijan will be the guarantee of NKR security. "This
document can better guarantee security than force and tensions,"
he said.
The Nagorno Karabakh Republic was proclaimed on September 2,
1992. According to NKR Constitution legally elected authorities and
the President guarantee security of the Republic. The territorial
integrity is secured by the Defense Army. The security zone includes
7 liberated regions.
