Without Nakhijevan, the Karabakh conflict cannot be understood, told a
former co-chair of OSCE Minsk Group Vladimir Kazimirov in an interview
with the Azerbaijani information-analytical agency '3rd View'.
'Border divisions between Armenians and Azeris happened very often
after conflicts. Mass outcomes rarely are voluntary. It is already
erased from the memory how many Armenians there were in Nakhichevan.
Imagine they want to go back there, more, within a tight schedule.
What will Baku say? Demagogically, it can say "Please!" And if we're
serious?"
Dwelling on the statements by Azerbaijan over Azerbaijani refugees of
Karabakh, Kazimirov said: "What's the use of repeating someone, who
lived there a century ago? No one will return the Indians to the U.S.,
Seljuks will not be offered to go back into Asia, etc. What happened
- is already a reality, even if the balance is negative. Example
- Crimea. It is necessary to proceed from the current situation,
rather than looking at a century ago. War is better to be left in
those centuries: I believe not in rage, but in man's intellect,
his ability to find an honorable way, even from the most impasse one".
Dwelling on the international understanding of the territorial
surrender, Kazimirov said: "Many states and international organizations
are not so simplistic to understand this complicated conflict, as
it gives your propaganda. All is not so sure. The conflict has its
prehistory. Attempts to force solutions to the military action were
taken by another party. This was not an armed attack by Armenians, but
more complex and multidimensional escalation of mutual hostility. The
right to self-defense is written in the UN Charter just as a State's
response to an armed attack against it, and not as a replay of the
war after 16 years", said the former mediator.
Kazimirov added that curbing the excesses of their own propaganda is
one of the main requirements to the parties of the conflict towards
peace in the region.
