Azerbaijan will have to recognize NKR – expert

PanARMENIAN.Net - International practice shows that ethno-political conflicts result in recognition of the breakaway regions, an expert said.

“Recognition demands time,” military psychologist David Jamalyan told a press conference on September 3.

As to recognition of Nagorno Karabakh by Azerbaijan, he said the Azeri public should mature for the move. “Neither ordinary people nor the political elite are ready to recognize NKR independence yet,” Jamalyan said.

“Azerbaijan should first understand that resolution of the conflict by use of force is impossible. The only thing the Azeri propaganda machine does successfully is the dissemination of Armenophobia,” he said.

He also noted that the September 21 parade in Yerevan will reduce Azerbaijan’s hope for military solution of Karabakh conflict to dust.
