If we take the scissors and cut the map, Azerbaijan will cut the parts of Jermuk, Berkaber of Tavush and other parts. Nikol Pashinyan said this during the briefing.
“Because if we take the scissors, we will cut it, Azerbaijan will also take the scissors, it will cut the Jermuk section, it will take the Berkaber section of Tavush and so on,” he said.
Pashinyan said that RA is in a constructive mood and he has no fears because the situation is a mirror, there is Artsvashen, there are others, as the solution of Artsvashen will be given, the others will be given the same way.
“During the contacts in the camp, people expressed two points of view, including the people from Artsvashen. A part of them said that the village should be restored and we should go live, there were people who said that so many years have passed, let’s find a solution, the balance of the area should not be disturbed, and we should not move again,” he said.
Pashinyan added that there are both points of view, but it is a matter of further discussion and agreement. At this moment, there is no agreement, decision, hints about what they will do, how they will do it.
“The record is that the maps that are the basis of the demarcation, those areas are defined in those maps and it would be a fatal mistake to take the scissors, to cut those parts of the maps. It would mean taking the scissors, legitimizing the action of cutting the map. We do not go to that,” said Nikol Pashinyan.
