Armenian former foreign minister: "The Moscow declaration has both negative and positive sides"

10 November 2008 [12:42] - TODAY.AZ
"Azerbaijan will make use of the Moscow declaration by all means", said Vardan Oskanyan, former Foreign Minister of Armenia and head of Sivilitas foundation, according to Liberty radio.
"The positive side is that accent is made on settlement by way of talks, though it would be more desirable to agree on non-appliance of force, but, perhaps, this attempt has failed.

Nevertheless, I appreciate positively the fact that the document fixes the issue resolution in the framework of the Minsk Group.

The most vulnerable point of the declaration, which the Armenian side failed to avoid, is a formulation, which fixes the settlement of issues on the basis of principles and norms of international law and decisions and documents, adopted in this framework.

It would be desirable for the second part not to have been reflected in the document. I am sure that Azerbaijan will make a use of it by all means", said Oskanyan.
