/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Trilateral statement by the leaders of OSCE MG
co-chair states, promulgation of Madrid Principles and agreement
on Nabucco signed in Ankara suggests that the decision on stepwise
political resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict was taken by
key regional actors and that the role of Armenia and Azerbaijan in
the process considerably decreased, an Armenian expert said.
"Nevertheless, Madrid Principles are halved and obscure. The first
provision envisages return of territories around Karabakh to Azeri
control. Does it mean that Azerbaijan will be granted the right to
deploy troops there? The provision on corridor is not understandable
either. Provision 4 does not clarify who will determine the status
of Nagorno Karabakh: one person or NKR people. The provisions on
peacekeeping forces and refugees are vague," Ruben Meghrabyan, an
expert at Armenian center of international and political studies,
told PanARMENIAN.Net.
This document may imply any solution: from formation of de jure
independent state up to de-Armenization of Karabakh, according to him.
"Armenia must be creative, cautious and cold-blooded. Upcoming
political battles will be a solidity test for the Armenian state
system, since the above mentioned provisions testify of fundamental
regional transformations," Meghrabyan said.
