An Azerbaijani twice-told analyst and a political scientist Vafa
Guluzade shared his view on the recently made statement by the Minsk
Group co-chairs on Karabakh.
When asked by Day.az on-line Agency's correspondent about this
statement, Vafa Guluzade said it was nothing but just a statement
made under lack of really taken steps. "When there is neither real
step taken in the fair settlement of the Karabakh conflict, the Minsk
Group co-chairs time after time have to make such kind of statements -
loud by form, but empty by content."
"This is another baseless statement made by another American diplomat,"
said the analyst keeping in view the recent statement of Secretary of
State James Steinberg. The point is, that James Steinberg said that
U.S. intends to support and contribute to the final settling of the
Karabakh conflict.
"The analogous statements were voiced repeatedly by the U.S.
officials, but nothing changed. The U.S. hasn't yet seriously
engaged in the Karabakh conflict, so I can hardly believe something
has changed."
When asked whether any decision can be made after the visit to
U.S. of Turkey's Prime Minister Erdogan, the Azerbaijani analyst said
no. "You shouldn't expect such developments as Turkey can't press
U.S. On the contrary, the U.S. will press Turkey in demand to open
the Armenia-Turkey border until 2010 April."
"At the same time the Turkish media will cover the visit to U.S. as
the political event completely linked with the settlement of the
Karabakh conflict," said Vafa Guluzade pointing that in reality it
will become an another informational myth to be fed Turkey's and
Azerbaijan's societies.
Vafa Guluzade voices concerns on failure of the Azerbaijani diplomacy
not in vain. Some other Azerbaijani analysts and experts are skeptical
about Azerbaijan's foreign policy, especially after the Munich
meeting, and meetings in Athens some of these days when the 17th
OSCE Ministerial Council was held. The fundamental principles won't
be brought into accord in the near future, they say. The matter is
whether Turkey will wait for final coming to an agreement with the
fundamental principles, or it will influence the great pressure by
U.S. to ratify the Armenian-Turkish protocols. Keeping in view all
these matters, Azerbaijan is out-of-pocket for any single hope to
benefit from the negotiations.
