"Optimism of some of the mediators demonstrated in the negotiations
is not yet based on concrete facts," said Alexei Vlasov, Head of
the expert group at information-analytical center of Moscow State
University named after Lomonosov.
"Statements by representatives of the Minsk Group on the outcome of
the sixth round contain a reference to some significant progress in the
negotiations. The progress implies that parties touched upon issued on
which there is an apparent divergence of positions. One might ask what
was discussed in earlier meetings and on what the entire negotiation
process focused since inception of the Minsk Group," he said.
"I believe the reaction is more optimistic than the progress that has
actually been achieved in negotiations between the presidents. I think
the only and main achievement is continuation of the negotiations. It
remains unknown when and in what format Ilham Aliyev and Serzh Sargsyan
will have the next meeting," Vlasov said.
Vlasov believes work session of Azerbaijani and Armenian foreign
ministers prior to the OSCE Ministerial Council which will be held
on Dec. 1-2 in Athens may be effective.
"It is possible that the foreign ministers will sign some documents at
the upcoming meeting if any agreement that parties deem it necessary
not to announce in a special statements had been reached during
Sunday's meeting," the political expert said.
