Referendum on Karabakh Status Not to Solve Conflict between NKR and Azerbaijan

PanARMENIAN.Net - For the most part, the referendum on the status of Karabakh will bot settle the opposition between the Nagorno Karabakh Republic and Azerbaijan, NKR President's Advisor on Foreign Affairs Arman Melikyan stated in an interview with Respublika Armenia newspaper. In his words, it's whether Azerbaijan, which cites its Constitution and says that it doesn't allow adoption of such decisions by a part of its population, will agree on in some 5 or 10 years. The idea of a postponed referendum implies a mechanism, which provide the possibility not to find the final resolution of the conflict but to unblock communications. At the expense of these communications serious regional and geopolitical issues may be solved," Melikyan said. However he did not rule out that the postponed referendum is beneficial for some third states, which do not wish these communication to function within next 5-10 years.
