2008 `successful` for Garabagh settlement
Armenian Foreign Minister Eduard Nalbandian has
called 2008 a successful year for the settlement of the
Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh conflict.
Nalbandian said the declaration signed by the Azerbaijani, Armenian and Russian presidents in Moscow on November 2 was an important document for reaching a solution to the long-running dispute.
According to Nalbandian, it is wrong to make projections on a specific timing for a settlement to the Garabagh conflict. "Many statements have been made to that end, but no common ground has been struck," the minister told a news conference in Yerevan last week.
Nalbandian made it clear that the Armenian government was concerned over Azerbaijan`s adhering to intransigent principles. "Azerbaijan is failing to make concessions, which is complicating the conflict settlement," he said.
Azerbaijan supports a solution to the conflict strictly within its territorial integrity, while Armenia is seeking a settlement based upon self-determination of the population of Upper Garabagh.
