Armenia's position is tat Karabakh should be independent, a Russian
expert said.
"It's another matter whether NK will join Armenia as a confederation
or function as an independent state," said Mikhail Alexandrov, head
of the Caucasus department at the Institute of CIS studies.
As a matter of fact, we have a similar situation as in case in Abkhazia
and South Ossetia, according to him.
"The Karabakh problem, against the West's wishes, will not be resolved,
since Serzh Sargsyan will stand firmly in defense of national interests
of the Armenian people. Watching Russia's position on Abkhazia and
South Ossetia, Armenia will urge Russia to smooth its position on
Karabakh. However, Russia expects Armenia to be the first to recognize
independence of Nagorno Karabakh," Alexandrov said.
