NO COMPROMISE SETTLEMENT OF CONFLICTS - EXPERTS
20:29 * 02.04.15
A compromise settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is most
unlikely now, Doctor of Political Science Sergey Minasyan said at
a discussion on the politico-military situation surrounding the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
"A settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and concessions are
incompatible for both the Armenian side and Azerbaijan," he said.
The conflict will develop into large-scale hostilities because of
the military and technical balance.
"It is not only different amounts of weapons, but also alliance,
Armenia's membership in the Collective Security Treaty Organization,
its relations with Russia that is in question. On the other hand,
it is relations with the western nations and NATO," Mr Minasyan said.
Despite being a CSTO member, Armenia has higher-level relations with
NATO and its member-states than Azerbaijan.
Political trends are of high importance for Azerbaijan. They have
in recent months gained even greater importance in the context of
fluctuations on the oil market. This is a blow not only on Russian
economy, but also on Azerbaijan, which is living due to oil.
Political scientist Alexander Iskandaryan does not consider it right
to call the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict "a protracted conflict."
"It is not a protracted conflict," he said.
According to Mr Iskandaryan, such conflict as Kashmir and Cyprus,
Israel and Palestine, Western Sahara, Ireland can be considered
protracted conflicts.
"I do not know any conflict resolved by means of compromise. If
states with their orders, traditions and management are involved in
such conflicts, they are difficult to resolve," Mr Iskandaryan said.
