PanARMENIAN.Net - 28 out of the 92 Azeri politicians interrogated consider the possible stationing of US armed forces in Azerbaijan will negatively tell on the Karabakh conflict settlement. According to Baku media, as reported by "Arminfo" agency, on the contrary, 62 interviewees suppose stationing US armed forces in Azerbaijan will have a positive impact on "liberation of the seized territories." Members of the Azeri parliament and leaders of political parties are among those questioned by "Program of Caucasus security monitoring" non-governmental organization.
