and about the situation with the nagorno-karabakh conflict the facts are off predictability is a crucial one well considering the fact that over twenty percent of our territory was occupied and ethnically cleansed from all is very nationals i mean there is literally not a single is eerie there it is hard to talk about good neighborliness and promote peace with regulations but anyway this is why i have come to moscow to continue searching for a peaceful solution in the two plus one format it took us as the going to go in a car back on flex the declaration was signed in two thousand and eight and there is a passage there saying that certain measures are required to increase confidence in the military sphere could you please comment on those words explaining what they imply with this in this case we're talking about the concept line between the armed forces of army and his ear bud chan unfortunately despite signing for suspension of

hostilities clashes still occur leading to death so both soldiers and civilians we are to take more effective measures to solve this issue there are mechanisms to foresee possibilities to decrease the tension i have to say that if the armenian armed forces withdraw from the occupied territories the factors of stability and predictability will be many times higher. what sort term goals do you see in reaching the settlement. of concepts that the we can speak of solving the nagorno-karabakh conflict in terms of short term goals there is a huge bundle of contradictions about it but the shelf creating predictability in the region can be a short term goal first and foremost to make attempts to decrease the military factor and first of all the military factor means the occupation of territories has

been suggested and discussed for the past six years in the frog process and in the magic principle suggested by the russian u.s. and french cochairman he's first and foremost related to phasing decision making by phasing decisions we understand we broke whopping simple troops withdrawal facilitates the opening of communications the return of the displaced people encourages the work of economic institutions growth of the konami component and provides for peacekeepers' security there is a document saying you know what direction we should make steps it was suggested by the russian and u.s. and french cochairman and a writ is an announcement at the latest g. eight summit in canada. they say the devil's in the details and we are to decide on the details now of what i can assure you often is that it's impossible to preserve the current status quo but we are to do the outmost to find

a way out of it with those that the victim of this set in a cube or two thousand and ten others on in their meaning every sin agreement on an exchange of war prisoners and dead bodies was it fulfilled. that the bill is still the question of course both the war prisoners and the dead bodies and there was a situation with the civilians who are exchanged in arm to thank russia for their assistance president medvedev personally committed to the resolution of this issue and in the end we reached a compromise in the situation where is it can we call it one of the first steps on the way to reach a settlement on the conflict. conflict that was that. you know i think the most important one was the declaration of two thousand and eight for the first time ever the president's i was here by john armey and russia signed a joint declaration which is often referred to as the i'm mindful of the

declaration or simply the moscow declaration which stipulates political criteria of conflict settlement like a conflict should be settled based on the principles of international law and in line with the relevant international agreements and resolutions there are four un security council resolutions adopted back in one thousand nine hundred ninety three that are unfortunately being violated which also come to nicole to armenia to withdraw their troops were miser by journey territory and underlined the importance of returning all the terminally displaced persons in refugees to their permanent places of residence you know easing military tensions after the doctrine of those un security council resolutions other international organizations followed suit. by adopting additional treaties or resolution by the european parliament a resolution by the parliamentary assembly of the council in europe there is aleutian by the organization for security and cooperation in europe we always see

and bio you other international organizations who understand that settlement can only be reached gradually and that occupying its territory of another state is absolutely unacceptable a pic i want to pick up against then go see sions on the caspian sea convention could you tell us why the negotiations are so difficult and why this convention is needed at all what are the factors holding it back why the negotiations have lasted for so long. convents a fatalist national what let me start with a little crilly or describing the background of this issue after the biz integration of the soviet union several new states emerged in the caspian area as only natural the legal regime that existed in the cast been area since the times of the soviet union and iran had to be modified taking into account the emergence of us here by john because us done japan is dan plus of course the russian federation

and ran in this context negotiations began with the purpose of defining the legal status of the caspian sea in what form and which poured should be divided in what idea the reason for the division of the caspian sea. they have lasted for a rather long time a force the crucial thing is how to ask to meet the historical period i mean whether or not twenty years is long enough a historical period or it is not the sort of thing but on the whole however this question does exist because there is a whole tangle of different problems starting from ecology which incidentally we managed to cope with successfully and to the shipping fishing and so on as far as i know iran failed to recognize the tripartite agreement between russia as

a bridge on and kazakhstan one of the supreme and he had he discussed with the reigning call leagues. the theme that we've coordinated with the russian federation in kazakhstan the demarkation of the caspian sea along the median line in accordance with the coastline has found its legal coral duration and is actually in agreement as you said between us here budge on the russian federation and kazakhstan. iran has an approach of its own generally we believe that this approach doesn't reflect the. eddy's that have taken shape in the caspian area as for turkmenistan its approach is generally in support of the median line but we have different points of calculation in how to figure out where the median line is but this in no way prevents us from developing bilateral positive tendencies in other matters and that's what's causing it but what is it that makes iran dissatisfied with the median line demarkation hoping to be

a basically the reigning side wants twenty percent of the caspian which doesn't reflect the existing realities in what we have come to terms with on the russian side and the kazakhstan side on the whole there is a common understanding with the turkmen side would say this if four states accept the medium line principle the fifth state accordingly ought to join the majority be rainin side is aware that the negotiations should be continued you know order to find common ground in a way out of the predicament and in principle i'm rather optimistic that over time we'll resolve this problem. but yes there is a view that as a bridge on to some extent is playing on the contradictions regarding the south stream by klein it does gas both to e.u. and russia and it says it has enough resources doesn't really have enough resources let's listen if someone gets a lot of that with i can hardly gree with the you where this word contradictions is concerned i don't think it's quite correct our position is this we shoot in the

first place and disengage politics from commerce from the commercial point of view as is only natural every energy producing country seeks to come to markets that are of most interest for it in the sense that they can offer a decent price for its energy resources. as far as deliveries concerned all options here are still open for as in our negotiations we are guided by considerations of the. national interests and commercial thought attention is of course a key part of those considerations if there is a good price it should be offered and delivered them and. you mentioned some important environmental issues related to the development of the caspian sea that were addressed could you elaborate on that which is that within this cause a look at well first of all caspian state leaders decided to stablish a war group that was to come up with propositions regarding the preservation of

sturgeon and there are spawning sites since the preservation of sturgeon was deemed very important all measures being considered all the way opportune posing a total ban on sturgeon fishing there are different grades of sturgeon and it's a commonwealth of all the five caspian states. did the b.p. oil spill in the gulf of mexico have any impact on the decisions taking in the field. that units that you know environment related to requirements to oil companies have become stricter of course as gas extraction in the shelbourne environment protection is not as pressing there as with oil what would the global experience and international standards according to which underwater pipelines are lead nothing bad has happened so far our experience of offshore oil extraction for the book who believe jihan pipeline will choose that if all international standards

are observed most projects are quite feasible that you. will in the final question concerns more the sphere of international relations does is there by john share the concerns of the international community about the iranian nuclear program. because that's what most you know as here by john has a clear position regarding peace any i.e. member state is entitle to its own peaceful nuclear program if it is in line with i.a.e.a. regulations and peaceful nuclear cooperation. it is possible and justified. the minister thank you very much for your time but thank you. we use special interest and accessory quitman.
