If the Karabakh issue is resolved, why do the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh not feel it, why is Azerbaijan shooting at Nagorno-Karabakh? - Nikol Pashinyan

If the Nagorno-Karabakh issue has been resolved, why do the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh not feel it? Nikol Pashinyan said about this during an interview with the Public Television Company, referring to the statement of the President of Azerbaijan that the Karabakh issue has been resolved.

"We said and we say that the NK issue was never a territorial issue, but rather that our foreign policy was not able to present this context to the international community," he said.

According to the Prime Minister, the rights and security of NK Armenians must be addressed.

"If the Karabakh issue is resolved, very well, then why do the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh not feel it, why have Azerbaijani troops set up positions around Nagorno-Karabakh, and why are they shooting at Nagorno-Karabakh?" We are not against the Nagorno-Karabakh issue being resolved or resolved, we say that the people living there should see, feel and accept that solution," Nikol Pashinyan emphasized.

Referring to the issue of extending the term of the Russian peacekeepers in Artsakh and increasing the number, Nikol Pashinyan mentioned that he publicly said that he is now ready to sign a document regarding the extension of the mandate of the peacekeepers, but there was no mutual understanding there either.

"Theoretically, it is possible that after 2025 the presence of peacekeepers will not be withheld. Yes, if all the guarantees for the rights and security of the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh are provided. Those guarantees should not only be created but also tested in real life. Russian peacekeepers cannot leave without the approval of such guarantees. Azerbaijan's desire that Russian peacekeepers leave Nagorno-Karabakh in 5 years cannot be illegitimate. International mechanisms will find ways to deploy peacekeepers there," added Pashinyan.
