RA MFA: unless issue of Nagorno Karabakh status is clarified we are not ready to talk about tertiary issues
"Regardless of who says what, we can only repeat what we have frequently explained: that unless the issue of the status of Nagorno Karabakh is clarified, and the right of self-determination is fully assured, and unless an irrevocable geographic link between Nagorno Karabakh and Armenia is secured, we are not ready to talk about tertiary issues," RA Foreign Ministry Acting Spokesperson Vladimir Karapetian told a PanARMENIAN.Net when commenting on the latest statement by OSCE MG U.S. Co-chair Matthew Bryza.

In an interview with The Associated Press Matthew Bryza said that "the two sides have agreed on the return of districts surrounding Nagorno Karabakh that are also under ethnic Armenian control."
