29 September 2015 – The peaceful resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh problem remains one of the most salient issues in the South Caucasus, the President of Armenia today told world leaders attending the General Assembly, while highlighting that the establishment of the UN has been one of the “greatest achievements of humankind” that consolidated nations around shared aspirations and principles.

“I shall note that aggressive policy pursued by Azerbaijan resulted in the absence of any meaningful progress in negotiations for the conflict settlement, and the situation drifts toward increasing tension,” said President Serzh Sargsyan at the annual debate in New York.

An autonomous region during Soviet times, Nagorno-Karabakh has been at the centre of a dispute between the neighbouring countries since they became independent in the early 1990s.

“Just a few days ago in the bordering area of Armenia, three women fell victim to Azerbaijani bombardment,” the President recalled. “It is obvious for us that the Azerbaijani leadership has irreversibly lost both the sense of reality and of norms of human conduct.”

He further noted that Azerbaijan “completely disdains” five joint statements issued by the leaders of the United States, Russia and France, as well as the efforts of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Minsk Group.

“Shall it continue such an aggressive policy, it will not leave Armenia any other choice but to take necessary legal and political-military steps to provide the Republic of Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh Republic with the opportunity to develop in security and peace,” President Sargsyan warned.

Meanwhile, he recalled that last year, one the eve of the Armenian Genocide Centennial, he expressed gratitude to the nations that recognized the Armenian Genocide and named them all individually.

“Today, from this very podium, I thank Pope Francis, and acknowledge the historical Mass he served; the European Parliament, and recall the Resolution it adopted; the German President, and, believe me, his well-known statement will thenceforth take part in the pages of our nation's history textbooks,” the President continued.

He also thanked the legislative bodies of Austria, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands, for their recent recognition of the 1915 genocide.

“Our determination to keep the prevention of the crime of genocide on the international agenda is [exemplified] by the resolutions we periodically table at the Human Rights Council,” Armenia’s leader underlined.

Furthermore, President Sargsyan said the global community is today witnessing “unspeakable cruelty” in the Middle East, and that his country has been directly affected by the atrocities unfolding there, since they result in the destruction of the Armenian spiritual and cultural heritage artefacts, as well as the murder and expulsion of the numerous Armenians residing in Iraq and Syria.

“The Armenian community of Syria, whose history is centuries-long, shares and experiences all hardships that the Syrian people are undergoing in these difficult times,” he declared.

“We are trying to aid the refugees to the best of our abilities: until this day, Armenia received more than 16,000 refugees from Syria. By this sheer figure, Armenia is one of the first among recipient European countries.”

He also highlighted the historical agreement made on the nuclear programme of Iran, which he noted is an “immediate neighbour” of Armenia.

“All these come to prove that when there is political will to bridge disagreements and emphasize the spirit of cooperation, it is indeed possible to find solutions for the most complicated issues,” the President highlighted.

"I express my deepest condolences to the bereaved families of servicemen," the Russian diplomat said.

In response to the question, if it it possible to ensure that the meeting of Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan at the end of this year, the Russian ambassador said:

"I think that the topic was discussed during the talks between the two ministers in New York. But, unfortunately, I have no idea of the results."

Yes it was a good speech and it was just one of many good speeches he has made over the years. Our foreign policy has been rather solid given our very limited resources.

YEREVAN. – Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Minsk Group Co-Chair, Ambassador James Warlick of the United States (US), made a noteworthy revelation when responding to a query from Zhoghovurd daily, the latter reported.

“We had asked how the US looks at the information, according to which the Russian Federation [(RF)] may unilaterally decide to enter peacekeeping forces into the NKR [i.e. the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic], and whether Russia and the US have agreed on a plan to deploy peacekeepers [there].

“The American diplomat actually declassified who cannot be in the peacekeeping forces. ‘The US position is that the [Minsk Group] co-chairing [i.e. US, Russia, and France] and neighboring countries shall not be engaged in the international peacekeeping forces. In our view, the parties agreed on this matter, and the topic has already been discussed,’ noted Warlick,” wrote Zhoghovurd.

Let's not forget another important issue. During his speech a few days ago, the president for the first time in Armenia's modern history stated that "when he says Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh is an inseparable part of it". This was a huge statement also!
