Azerbaijani "curiosity" has gone so far that despite the summer heat
they are looking for comparisons between what is going on in Kodor
gorge and Nagorno Karabakh issue. Talking to Day.az Gia Areshidze, head
of the Georgian center for Strategy and State Security Studies, touched
upon Kodor-Karabakh parallels saying that if Armenia does not change
its policy over the conflict a military solution will be inevitable.
Meanwhile, in the words of Alimamed Nuriev, president of the Foundation
of Constitutional Study, Azerbaijani functionaries more often state
that if diplomatic efforts fail Azerbaijan will have the right of
retuning the so-called occupied lands militarily. As to the military
capacity of Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan, Nuriev thinks
that though the Azerbaijani army is developing "there is not a clear
advantage for a sure victory over the Armenians."
President of Nagorno Karabakh, Arkady Ghukasian stated on his part:
"Artsakh has to continue its socio-economic development and has to be
always ready to withstand any encroachment against its independence
and the security of its people."
