Commenting on the Azerbaijani President's decision not to participate
in the May 8 informal summit of CIS leaders in Moscow, Director of the
Caucasus Institute, political analyst Alexander Iskandaryan said that
not all presidents should necessarily participate in such meetings.
`However, the case with Azerbaijan is specific and mostly explained by
its relations with Armenia,' Iskandaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter.
`Aliyev's decision is domestic-oriented. Of course, meetings between
the Armenian and Azerbaijani sides are held regular and absence of any
progress in the conflict settlement is not something new over recent
16 years. However, Azerbaijan wants to cover its political propaganda
through some affront in its relations with Russia,' Iskandaryan said.
