Alexander Karavayev: Karabakh conflict resolution impossible in near future

PanARMENIAN.Net - Resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is unreal in the near future, said Alexander Karavayev, head of political forecast service at Moscow information and analytical center for post soviet studies.



Resolution is possible with combination of three major factors, according to him.



"First, change of format of talks and acceptance of Turkey's Caucasus Platform. With strengthening of bilateral relations, some progress will be possible in 2010-2011. The second factor depends on development of economic situation in Azerbaijan. If this country works out a new model of successful development, Armenia might move toward resolution of the conflict. The third factor is conditioned by Armenia's domestic affairs," Karavayev said.
