Karabakh Conflict Still Too Far from Solution

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno Karabakh conflict is sill too far from its solution and those, who say it can be solved in 2-3 years make too optimistic statements, Senior Research Fellow of the Institute of World Economy and International Relations Victor Nadein-Rayevsky stated in an interview with a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter in Yerevan. In his words, the desire to solve the conflict depends on all parties, however Azerbaijan is not yet able to provide security guarantees to the NKR people.



«Lately Azeri position changes and that is good, Baku adds some realism. However, it should not be forgotten that the years of NKR independence had their role. The people are not only a subject, but also an object of the international law and they should decide their future themselves. There is no difference whether a state is recognized by the international community or not. The NKR is a party to the conflict and its presence at the talks is compulsory. They speak of some autonomy models, but they do not ask the NKR population. I am sure this is not correct," Victor Nadein-Rayevsky underscored.
