Rasim Musabeyov Political analyst Rasim Musabeyov commented on
the upcoming meeting between the presidents of Russia, Armenia and
Azerbaijan in Saint Petersburg.
'Now the negotiating process between Armenia and Azerbaijan is at an
impasse and there is a need to find a way out of this situation. At
the moment, there are only two ways out of the situation: either it
develops on an adverse script or the negotiation process continues.
Therefore the initiative of President Dmitry Medvedev to hold a
trilateral meeting in St. Petersburg can be evaluated from this
perspective as useful', said political analyst Rasim Musabeyov,
commenting on the upcoming meeting of the presidents of Russia,
Azerbaijan and Armenia in Saint Petersburg.
According to the analyst, the maneuvers of Armenia to further delay
the negotiation process and the continuing occupation of Azerbaijani
lands have finally been narrowed and it must define.
When asked why Armenia is now beginning to flirt with NATO, R.
Musabeyov said: 'All this is not serious. It is Turkey in the region
of NATO and its position on these issues is well known to all'.
The political analyst also said that the day before the St. Petersburg
meeting Azerbaijan has increased its military budget by $400m and
now it is 2 bn dollars, that equals the budget of Armenia. 'So let
Armenia draws conclusions from all this', he said.
