No road map on Karabakh to be signed in Kazan, NKR official says

Artsakh doubts that any road map agreement on the Karabkh conflict settlement will be signed during trilateral Armenia-Russia-Azerbaijan presidential meeting in Kazan, head of the Central Information Department of the NKR President’s Office stated.

As David Babayan noted in a conversation with a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, there’re no objective premises to singing of any document on the issue.

“The parties need plenty of time to agree on final version of the document, considering Azerbaijan’s unreadiness to undertake constructive steps. Even now, Azerbaijan’s every suggestion is detrimental to Karabakh,” Babayan said.

However, Babayan did not rule out for the conflicting parties to issue yet another statement on continuation of talks in order to mitigate the situation. NKR official expects no breakthrough on Karabakh till 2014 in view of oncoming elections in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russia, U.S. and France.
