    Azerbaijani political analyst said that the main purpose of inviting
    the Armenian President to the United States, is also associated with
    the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem.

    "Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan invited to a conference on nuclear
    safety, to be held in April, will be pressured to normalize relations
    with Turkey," the Center for Political Innovations and Technology
    chairman Mubariz Ahmadoglu said at an event held in the AMI Trend.

    The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
    armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.

    Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994.

    The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. -
    are currently holding the peace negotiations.

    Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's resolutions
    on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the occupied
    territories.

    Ahmadoglu said that it is not ruled out that during a trip to the
    United States the Armenian President will be pressured concerning
    the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    He said that now Armenia is ready for the release of seven regions
    surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh. "The number of those in Armenia who spoke
    about the possibility of the return of lands to Azerbaijan increases,"
    Ahmadoglu said.

    Political analyst said that Azerbaijan's position in relation to
    the updated Madrid principles to resolve the conflict peacefully,
    is positive. Armenians said that Azerbaijan is a strong point. Its
    positions are rather strengthened. They say that, despite Azerbaijan
    failed to bring some moments in accordance with its interests in the
    new version of the Madrid principles, it managed to neutralize them.

    Therefore, Sargsyan said that Armenia will be forced to sign a document
    that promotes launching of the process to release seven regions around
    Nagorno Karabakh, " he said.
