A few days ago the deputy assistant to the U.S. Secretary of State
Matthew Bryza said in an interview with the Regnum news agency that
the risk of war will be considerably low after the seven regions are
returned to Azerbaijan.
He said that from the legal point of view Karabakh is part of
Azerbaijan, and it appeared under the political and military control
of the other sides, the separatists who are ethnic Armenians. What
he finds most important is their ability to work out an agreement
which will allow both sides, Armenia and Azerbaijan, to agree on the
status of Nagorno-Karabakh. Matthew Bryza said he does not know what
this agreement will be like but they must try to persuade both sides
to reach agreement on the status and it will take a very long time.
Matthew Bryza says while moods change, and people change their opinion
on the status, there is room to move regarding the issue of status,
while Armenia says one thing, and Azerbaijan says another thing,
they can do a lot to reduce the risk of war and improve the situation
of the local people. He says they could have reached the return of
the seven Azerbaijani territories around Karabakh to Azerbaijan and
ensured the coexistence of the Armenians and Azerbaijanis. Matthew
Bryza says there is hope that living, working, trading side by side
would make the issue of status less sharp. The U.S.
mediator says the sides can gradually reach agreement on the status
of Karabakh.
