"Negotiations over the Nagorno-Karabakh issue are in deadlock recently
and the international mediators don't show activity connected with the
coming presidential elections in Azerbaijan. But some ways of solution
are worked out in some international organizations. For example,
some approaches in the recent report by the International Crisis
Group were dangerous for Armenia". Politician Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan
said about this during the meeting with the journalists. Panorama.am
informs about this.
According to him, Western experts try to present Armenian and
Azerbaijani actions as equal. He presented an example according which
the experts try to present as equal actions the extradition of Ramil
Safarov and the wish to open the Stepanakert airport.
"This already exists in the report presented by the International
Crisis Group. The thesis exists also in the research made by the
London "Rusi" royal research institute. The latter research was made
by Azerbaijani financing and it wasn't hidden. This thesis is tried to
be developed and brought to the political field", the politician said.
According to him the second thesis is about the uselessness of OSCE
Minsk Group. According to it OSCE MG hasn't assisted to the conflict
solution for years so the negotiating format must be changed.
"Azerbaijan is really interested in demolishing the OSCE MG, as its
elder brother and main ally Turkey is out of the MG and is unable to
have active influence on the policy of the South Caucasus. Azerbaijan
tries to make some activity around the conflict in order to give
opportunity those approaches to come to life. That is why it organizes
diversions on the border in order to show that the conflict isn't
frozen", H. Melik-Shahnazaryan noticed.
Referring to the third thesis, the speaker underlined that Azerbaijan
tries to show that despite of Armenia's victory in the war, our
country has been defeated in general, as it has lower economical
index. And numbers of Azerbaijani economic growth are shown actively
in this context.
"Now these thesis will become information factor, but I am sure that
they will become also political factor in future. And we must struggle
against it", the politician underlined.
