Azeri opposition says US, Russian presidents discussed Karabakh in Moscow
The opposition in Azerbaijan has said that the Nagornyy Karabakh
conflict was discussed between the US and Russian presidents at their
recent Moscow meeting, opposition daily Yeni Musavat reported on 9
July.
Leader of the Musavat Party Isa Qambar is convinced that every topic
discussed between Barack Obama and Dmitriy Medvedev will indirectly
influence Azerbaijan: "Discussion of the missile defence system brings
up the issue of the Qabala radar station. Russia could not have
discussed Georgia without talking about Nagornyy Karabakh," Yeni
Musavat quoted Qambar as saying.
In the meantime, the chairman of the People's Front of Azerbaijan
Party, Ali Karimli, believes that the USA is in a position to convince
Russia to settle the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict peacefully: "We would
like to see the USA urging Russia not to hamper peace between
Azerbaijan and Armenia and convince Russia that peace should be in
their [Russia's] interests too. This is what we expect."
The president of the For Azerbaijan Public Union, Eldar Namazov, told
the paper that the Russian and US presidents discussed Karabakh, Iran,
international energy projects, the situation in the Caucasus, missile
defence systems and regional issues.
