The proposal of the OSCE Minsk Group to withdraw the snipers from
the line of contact and exclude the border incidents is not new,
political scientist Narek Galsyan told reporters today.
In response to the latest statement of the OSCE Minsk Group,
Azerbaijani declared that they will discuss the issue of moving back
the snipers after Armenia withdraws the troops from the "occupied
territories."
According to the political scientist, the withdrawal of snipers
could be useful for the negotiation process. He considers that to
some extent Azerbaijan's stance on the issue is a result of weakness
of the international community.
"The international community cannot implement considerable changes
in Azerbaijan's position. Moreover, Azerbaijan's relations with
the Western role-players are gradually deepening," the political
scientist said.
Narek Galstyan says that under such circumstances the response of
the Armenian side should be adequate. He believes that proposals
are not tools for pressure and the international role-players should
think of more practical measures to exert influence on Azerbaijan,
especially in the field of energy cooperation.
Referring to the statement of the OSCE Minsk Group that Karabakh
will once return to the negotiating table, political scientist Narek
Galstyan noted that it would positively affect the peace process,
leading to a final solution. He added, however, that it will take
long to change the position of Azerbaijan on the issue.
