"I believe presidents' Moscow meeting may end with framework agreement
on liberation of occupied lands surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh, political
expert Fikrat Sadigov said.
"Or presidents can reach real agreement. Consistent statements by
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Azerbaijani President Ilham
Aliyev point to it," he said.
"I think now the agenda includes liberation of the seven occupied
lands. I think the upcoming Moscow meeting of the presidents will mark
another important step in terms of liberation of the occupied lands,"
he said.
"As to the statements by the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, they have
always been inconsistent and contradictory, especially statements
by Mathew Bryza. He makes different statements in Baku and Yerevan,"
the political expert said.
"Russia wants to take a lead in resolution of the conflict. The
St. Petersburg and Moscow meetings testify to it. It was Moscow to
initiated the Moscow Declaration," he said.
"Of course, one should not display good nature and think that all
problems will be addressed soon. We need to work further on this
track," he said.
"Azerbaijan will never allow Nagorno-Karabakh to be an independent
state. It is Azerbaijan's integral part. This fact has been recognized
by international governments who contributed resolutions to this
issue," Sadigov said.
