Yerevan/Mediamax/. Spokesperson for Armenian Foreign Ministry Anna Naghdalyan has stated that the Armenian sides view as unacceptable any option of Karabakh conflict settlement, which does not provide for the right of self-determination for Artsakh without any restrictions and poses any threat to the security of Artsakh people.

She has made that statement while answering the question from Russian newspaper Kommersant about Armenia’s stance on negotiations on a stage-by-stage settlement.

“Armenian, Russian and Azerbaijani Foreign Ministers together with the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs summarized the results of the meeting, held on 15 April 2019, in a joint statement. It outlines the framework of the negotiations and does not include reference to or even a hint at a stage-by-stage option,” said Anna Naghdalyan.

She has noted that Armenia considers the proposals, which imply stage-by-stage settlement of Karabakh conflict, to be unacceptable.

“Moreover, since 2018 Armenia is not involved in negotiations which would be based on stage-by-stage settlement option. Armenia has a clear vision for the approaches, based on balance, coordination and compromise, which will make it possible to reach a fair and long-term settlement for the Karabakh conflict,” added Anna Naghdalyan.
