    NAGORNO-KARABAKH CANNOT FORM ALLIANCE WITH AZERBAIJAN - RUBEN MELKONYAN

    17:30 â~@¢ 17.04.14

    The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) cannot form an alliance with a
    state inferior to it, and Azerbaijan's statements show its desire to
    fish in troubled waters, expert in Turkic studies Ruben Melkonyan
    told Tert.am as he commented on Azerbaijani FM Elmar Mammadyarov's
    statement that Azerbaijan is ready to grant the highest-level autonomy
    for Nagorno-Karabakh.

    "His statements are not worth any attention," the expert said.

    He pointed out active regional developments, and any impetus can
    intensify them.

    Although the Crimea is not directly linked with the South Caucasus,
    the ongoing developments in Ukraine, as well as in Azerbaijan, will
    influence the region. And Azerbaijan's activity can be viewed in
    this context.

    "I have not so far heard or read the Armenian foreign office's
    response. The reason may be that our foreign office does not consider
    regional developments important. But I think that it should have made
    a statement, at least for the domestic audience," Melkonyan said.

    Asked about Edward Nalbandian's re-appointment as Armenia's FM, the
    expert said that this is evidence of Armenia's consistent foreign
    policy.

    "I consider Mr Nalbandian one of our experienced diplomats,"
    Melkonyan said.
