“Karabakhi people themselves, but not international mediators and Armenian authorities should resolve NKR issue,” a refugee from Baku, NKR resident Mikhail Sargsyan said, commenting on the joint statement of Russian, French, Armenian Azerbaijani Foreign Ministers, as well as U.S. Deputy Secretary of State.

“To date, international community displays a unilateral and even-handed approach on a number of issues, including the one on refugees. They &‘take care’ of Azeri refugees and ignore Armenians who are not inferior to them in quantity and suffered much more. This tendency is seen in Madrid Principles that mediators try to impose on both parties to the conflict.

The mediators simply attempt to return status quo or on other words — explosive situation under which Azerbaijan in due course unleashed a large-scale war against Karabakhi people who believed in positive changes and claimed about right to self-determination. I am surprised that some high ranking officials give in to vivid provocations,” Sargsyan concluded.
