YEREVAN.- Russia's intensified activities as a mediator in the
settlement process of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict this year was agreed
by other mediating states, first of all with the U.S., political
scientist Andrei Areshev said at a press conference on Monday.
"The failure was natural as Karabakh conflict is an easy mechanism
for solving other issues in the region. The Madrid principles failed,
but it was a circuit to run the negotiations," the expert stated.
According to Areshev, negotiations on settling the Karabakh conflict
will continue, no one is going to dissolve the OSCE Minsk group.
Regarding Russia's policy, it would promote stabilization of the
situation for a clearer and more consistent vision in the South
Caucasus. Moreover, it would have beaten the hunt of some partners
to initiate provocations.
The stronger Russia is in the Caucasus, the greater is the guarantee
that Nagorno-Karabakh will be subject to large-scale military
intervention.
"The current situation in Karabakh will not bring a diplomatic break.
It is caused by the fact that pre-election period for both Armenia
and Russia is approaching. I guess that minimum a half-year we should
not expect any breaking ideas," Areshev added.
