YEREVAN. – The Republic of Artsakh needs to be a full party in the negotiation process to resolve the Karabakh conflict.

Narek Ayvazyan, board member of Armenia’s opposition Free Democrats Party, stated the aforesaid at Friday’s conference devoted to this conflict, the armed forces of Armenia, and the election platforms in the run-up to the forthcoming parliamentary voting in Armenia.

In his words, Stepanakert must participate in this negotiation process, and represent the interests of the people of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).

“Only then will it be possible to speak about mutual concessions,” added Ayvazyan.
