    NO PROGRESS IN KARABAKH PEACE TALKS POSSIBLE IN COMING YEARS - SENIOR ARF-D REP

    The coming couple of years are unlikely to see any progress in the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement talks, according to a senior
    member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation-Dashnakutyun.

    At a news conference on Thursday, the head of ARF-D's Political
    Affairs Department, Kiro Manoayn, said no progress can be expected
    given that both conflicting countries - Armenia and Azerbaijan -
    are in the run-up to elections, with Azerbaijan having become a
    non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council.

    "The mediators will restricts themselves only to statements aimed at
    easing tensions over a possible war," he said.

    Asked whether he believes in the Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan's
    statement that Armenia will take measures towards repressing
    Azerbaijan's violations of ceasefire, he said: "I have no reason not
    to believe because it is really necessary to undettake appropriate
    steps to repress Azerbaijan, preventing it from playing child tricks,"
    he said.

    Manoyan noted that Azerbaijan is not likely to trigger a war despite
    its belligerent rhetoric and military expenditures. He added, however,
    that the violations of the ceasefire on the Contact Line could lead to
    an armed conflict or operations not desirable to either of the parties.

    "Should Azerbaijan trigger a war, its oil-pipelines will face a great
    threat and disaster," he added.
