The Azg newspaper writes that the expectations from the OSCE Summit
in Astana on December 1-2 are over-optimistic, and they can hardly be
realized. One of the expectations is progress in the Nagorno-Karabakh
peace process because of officials' ungrounded statements.
Signing any document and expecting such an event is never preceded
by any statements, so any expectations from the Astana summit are
unrealistic. On the other hand, with the need for further meetings
and negotiations considered, it is clear the statements are part of
the process.
OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Kazakh Foreign Minister Kanat Saudabayev
added one more statement. He pointed out that the negotiations over
documents progress with difficulties, especially when documents on
conflicts are in question.
On the other hand, a possible Armenian-Azerbaijani presidential
meeting during the summit is not a reason for optimism either.
Immediately after the previous meetings the Azeri President tried to
discredit the Minsk process.
