ALAND ISLANDS ARE FAR AWAY FROM KARABAKH

January 28, 2002 - 04:00 AMT  06:21 GMT
Recently there is a great interest towards private and public initiatives aimed at Karabakh conflict's settlement in Azerbaijan. Evidently, the leaders of Azerbaijani NGOs have perceived too literally the statements of the international mediators saying that a settlement for the Karabakh problem should be found in capital cities of the states, which are conflict sides. Without coming to an agreement with anyone, Baku's public figures have started to elaborate schemes of settlement and have put them for discussion of the society. Officials engaged in settlement of Karabakh problem are watching this strange process with bewilderment, but prefer not to intervene, while the initiatives become more and more active.
