Turkish expert Bulent Aras believes that high level of the
Russia-Armenia relations enables Moscow to impact positively on the
solution of the [Armenia-Azerbaijan] Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Russia's recent actions towards the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict give reason to say that Moscow could play a crucial role
in this respect, Bulent Aras, Associate Professor of International
Relations at the Isik University in Ankara, said.
During his visit to Turkey Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin
said active work is underway to resolve [Armenia-Azerbaijan]
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Turkish Anadolu news agency reported.
"Serious work is being done to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
and there is serious progress in this regard. Moscow is eager to see
rapid resolution of the conflict," Putin added.
Aras believes that Russia, along with Turkey, is also interested in
solution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Turkey wants to stabilize the relations with countries of the region,
including Armenia. It is impossible to achieve this stabilization
without solving the Nagorno-Karabakh problem. The Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict is the subject of Russia-Turkey discussion, Aras said
The solution of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem should not be considered
as Russia's deviation from its interests.
Russia will never surrender its interests in the Caucasus. However,
unstable situation in the Caucasus is dangerous for Russia, too. Just
for this reason Russia will make effort to achieve stabilization in
the region, Aras added.
