Azerbaijan is worried after the Crimea referendum to join Russia as
it can become a precedent. We cannot but notice the obvious similarity
between Crimea and the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, political scientist
Aram Manukyan said.
The expert told reporters that at the same time, the international
law is effective only when the state is backed by some force.
"Under the current conditions, Armenia should carry out consistent
foreign policy and needs to have influential allies whose interests
coincide with those of Yerevan. Only in this case we can hope for a
fair settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict," he noted.
According to Manukyan, Russia cannot act against Armenia's interests in
the Nagorno-Karabakh issue because it has already shown that in similar
conflicts it supports the right of nations to self-determination.
