Today the reality is that Russia, as one of the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs, is interested in resolving the Armenian-Azerbaijani
Karabakh conflict.
The main reason is some qualitative changes in foreign policy of the
Russian Federation.
The remarks came from Deputy Executive Secretary of the ruling New
Azerbaijan Party Mubariz Gurbanli.
It is impossible to achieve breakthrough in negotiations through
pressure, Gurbanli said. "You cannot use Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
as a means of pressure on Azerbaijan. Such a tactic never worked,"
the ruling party official said.
"Despite 20% of Azerbaijani territory has been occupied, we will not
retreat from this policy and we are implementing it with success,"
Gurbanli added.
"Serious socio-economic situation in Armenia makes some countries to
intensify their efforts in resolving Nagorno-Karabakh problem.
Armenia's economy is experiencing hard times, and its patrons
are clearly getting tired of this situation. Therefore, in
order to save Armenia, they are trying to assist in resolving the
Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Of course, Azerbaijan
and Russia are strategic partners and Ilham Aliyev and Dmitry Medvedev
maintain trusting and friendly relations. There is certain opinion
about resolution of this conflict in Russian society," the official
continued.
'Given all these factors, I think a favorable condition will be created
for resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,' Gurbanli noted.
