‘The government is aware of serious attacks from inside in the case of fulfillment of the Madrid principles:’ Aram Manukyan

During the pre-election campaign, the “peace program” of the “Congress-PPA” alliance presented to the society which is based on the concession option of the Karabakh conflict settlement, the “Madrid principles”, gradually becomes clear to the citizens.  This was told by the parliamentary candidate of the Alliance, ANC Vice-President Aram Manukyan at the “Hayatsk” press club.

We inquired how and why Azerbaijan must agree to the fulfillment of the “Madrid principles” now.  “If Azerbaijan does not agree, then why is it negotiating?” asked Aram Manukyan, “But is Azerbaijan negotiating?” to the question, he answered, “Then what is Azerbaijan doing in these twenty years?  They are negotiating but saying quite a different thing to their public.  Azerbaijan cannot sit around the table with the superpowers and be engaged in formalities.  If Armenia were the initiator, Azerbaijan will stay alone against the pressure of superpowers.  No Aliyev can stand these pressures which the superpowers, the international community and the co-chairs can present.

We also inquired whether the RA authorities are initiators in respect to the negotiations on the “Madrid principles”.  “The authorities know the complexity of the situation and the necessity to go for it.  The “no-inch-land” political parties and bragging race hampers them.  The authorities are well aware of the situation and threats.  It remains to make a political decision which will be difficult.  I am afraid it could cost a power for them.  I am confident that they know that in that case, they will get serious attacks from inside.  We are giving an alternative.  If the political will is not sufficient for them, we say, resign without a pressure,” replied Aram Manukyan.
