/PanARMENIAN.Net/ There were two approaches - informative and
politological - to the meeting between the Armenian and Azerbaijani
Presidents, according to a Russian expert.
"There was no breakthrough because of different philosophy applied to
the conflict," Sergei Markedonov, head of the interethnic department
at the Institute for Political and Military Analysis, said during
Yerevan-Moscow-Baku television space bridge.
"On the one hand it's Azerbaijan bellicose rhetoric as a consequence
of syndrome of the defeated. On the other hand, it's the claim of
Karabakh Armenians to self-determination. There aren't even two or
three provisions the sides could agree on."
"Serzh Sargsyan is not a tyro at the Karabakh process.
He was a prominent figure at the beginning of the Karabakh movement. He
was Armenia's Defense Minister and Prime Minister. It would be naïve
to think that he is unaware of the process. The most positive fact s
that the meeting took place," Markedonov said, adding that frequent
skirmishes at the contact line of the Armenian and Azerbaijani armed
forces prove that the sides are not prepared for an agreement yet.
