“Nikol Pashinyan’s statement yesterday had no legal, political, or diplomatic basis or any message addressed by Armenia to either an internal or external audience,” Anna Mkrtchyan, a member of the I Have Honor faction, told reporters on December 9. She said that Pashinyan did not deny the reminder about the verbal agreements.
“He was taking notes from the conversation with Aliyev in his notebook, which, in his opinion, is a positive signal. In response to my question about what this could be if it’s not a corridor considering that the 9th point of the November 9 statement gives us an obligation to ensure the unimpeded connection between Azerbaijan and Nakhichevan and the provision of that connection is not under the control of the Armenian security system, but instead under a third country…
You still do not know what this person is talking about. I do not think that Armenia has a representative in any format, be it 3 + 3, even the Minsk Group co-chairs. By no means can the interests of the Republic of Armenia be preserved through negotiations or the army be strengthened under Nikol Pashinyan’s administration. Our headache is not 3 + 3, our headache is Nikol. Once we get rid of him and have a representative of the Republic of Armenia in all other formats, we can have substantive discussions there. Any discussion is meaningless if it is conducted by Nikol Pashinyan.
We do not have a representative in any format, he wants to be 3 + 3, he wants a meeting with the co-chairs tomorrow, he wants a meeting in Sochi, the same in Brussels, do you think we have a representative there?” According to Anna Mkrtchyan, Artsakh’s page has been closed, and now the authorities have the task of explaining and convincing Armenian society that a security system around Armenia will not be mandatory, it is normal that RA citizens have been taken prisoner, and those people can be called criminals in order to free themselves from the obligation to return the captives.
