And to do so it is important that they become a negotiating side whci was taken from them after Kocharian came to power. He also said that his is glad that he could guarantee the self determination, freedom and human rights of a nation which is the most important thing out there. He also said that for long lasting solution all the parties should be satisfied with it otherwise it will not be a solution. He also said that the ccurrent government faild to make any progress in finding a solution and we are not in a situation to survive in such a limbo for too long. I think he will say more on Karabakh issue later on. As coming to Azeris I dont give rats ass that what they think that who is a better president fo Armenia. They might say LTP is better knowingly that by doing so they might decrease LTPs chances. The current situation is of thier benefit because they are building a stronger Army and economy on the oil money that they are getting. Karabakh is a hard question indeed but the bottom line is that it is the Karabakhtsi who should decide that how they want to live.

From a quote I read of his Mariott speech he basically said re: Karabakh 'they screwed it up, I can't even say what to do with it now'. Is it just me or does not sound too promising a Karabakh policy. I would expect someone throwing his hat into the ring on this to have exciting ideas or at least opinions on the major issues facing the nation. Just saying the situation has been so mangled by the current administration that I don't know what to do with it is NOT the right answer. Perhaps this comes from the fact Levon's opinion on Karabakh has not changed, but he knows the people clearly won't allow such a solution. So we are left in some sort of no-man's land where Levon can't take the steps he wants to take so he's left with no options. If he does become president (unlikely) he will have to face these questions however, and I don't know what to do is not a good enough answer.
