B. Sahakyan: Conflict cannot be solved without NKR participation

Artsakh President Bako Sahakyan asserts that the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict cannot be resolved without Stepanakert’s participation in the
negotiations.

`It is just unreal to resolve the Azerbaijan-Karabakh conflict without
our participation in the negotiation process as a side enjoying equal
rights,’ President told Interfax.

`We are ready for direct negotiations with Azerbaijan and discussion
of any issue, which we repeat constantly,’ Sahakyan noted.

`I think restoration of negotiation full format is merely a matter of
time,’ President stressed.

B. Sahakyan believes that resumption of large-scale operations between
the conflict sides is hardly probable.

In his interview, Artsakh President stressed that the conflict should
be resolved through compromises, not one-sided concessions. He speaks
out against the principle `peace for territories,’ only `peace for
peace’ principle is acceptable, according to the President.
