/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Format of the negotiation process is an important
constituent of resolution of any conflict, since it reflects
the balance of forces in the given region, said a Karabakhs-based
political scientist.
"The OSCE Minsk Group has evolved during the years of its
existence. However, some permanent MG member states do not have tools
of influence in the region. Meanwhile, a country like Iran is not
represented. The main gap in the Minsk format is that participation
of Nagorno Karabakh has been frozen for over 10 years already," David
Babayan wrote in "Perspectives of the Nagorno Karabakh process in
the light of recent geopolitical transformations" article obtained
by PanARMENIAN.Net.
"Nevertheless, the MG format has not been exhausted yet. Peace in
the conflict zone is maintained by the Minsk Group," he wrote.
Global developments will affect the Karabakh process and its format,
according to Babayan.
"There will be new initiatives, like the Iranian one. However,
Karabakh should be recognized as a party to conflict," he wrote.
