APA. “The principles of the resolution of Nagorno Karabakh conflict remain unchanged.These principles create serious base for the serious process. It is also very important for the public of the two countries to know the content of the process of negotiations.

Interview with American expert, visiting scholar of Columbia University, David Phillips. The date of April 24th which is a “genocide” day for Armenians is coming closer. Many believe there will be some activeness coming from Turkey, concerning the protocol ratification. What, in your opinion, may be happening on this date, or close to it?
The Protocols represent a bilateral agreement between Turkey and Armenia. There is no linkage to Nagorno Karabakh. This was expressed by Prime Minister Erdogan to President Obama when they met last April. It was widely perceived last year that Turkey was heralding its signing of the protocols to effect international recognition of the Armenian genocide. I don’t think anyone will be interested in that happening again.

There were 3,000 people in the town at the time of Armenian military forces' attack. Most part of the population had to leave town during four months blockade. 613 people were killed, 1,000 peaceful people of different age became invalid during Khojaly genocide. 106 women, 63 children, 70 old men were killed. 8 families were completely annihilated, 130 children lost one parents, while 25 both of them. 1,275 peace residents were taken hostages, while the fate of 150 of them is still unknown.
