'Moscow using a rumor war against Iran to position itself in the
South Caucasus.
The US courage Israel not to attack Iran and I believe that is not
happen', president of the Jamestown Foundation Glen Howard told
journalists, APA reports.
"But to whose advantages is the statement being done? Which country
to the north just talking about the threat of attack and moving forces
into the south? So this is a question we have to ask", said Howard.
Howard said Nagorno Karabakh conflict created a problem for both
Azerbaijan and entire region. "Russia has been given the primary
position in this issue. It is the country that arms Armenia but the
same time it is the key negotiator with Azerbaijan.
It does not make sense. Our role is to keep in mind that you really
need to have a balance to the negotiating process. Russia is providing
weapon to Armenia and also to Azerbaijan. It is negotiator and the
same time the key arms provider. That is not creating a very stable
situation", said Howard.
