/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Nothing extraordinary happened during the
Sargsyan-Aliyev meeting in Saint Petersburg, according to an Armenian
expert.
"The core of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is in the region itself
and nowhere else. Nothing can change the format of relations
now. Certain military, human and historical balance of forces was
established during 20 years. The sides are trying to continue the
war by other means, for example, economic blockade and saber-rattling
on Azerbaijan's part. Talks are also a constituent of this war. The
degree of compromise doesn't please any of the sides. Azerbaijan
doesn't give up attempts to bring to nothing the 20-year struggle of
Karabakhi Armenians' for self-determination while Armenia wants to
fix the status quo. The Karabakh conflict is rather political than
legal," Caucasus Institute Director Alexander Iskandaryan said during
Yerevan-Moscow-Baku television space bridge.
"Kosovo's independence is a vivid example of self-determination
bypassing the international law.
There are no expectations for a serious breakthrough in Karabakh
talks in the near future," the Armenian political scientist said.
