Expert: resumption of hostilities more likely than resolution of Karabakh conflict in 2009
The forces speaking of final resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict in 2009 imply surrender of territories to Azerbaijan, an Armenian expert said.
"In my opinion, resumption of hostilities is more likely than resolution of the conflict next year," Andranik Tevanyan, head of political economy research institute, told a news conference today.
The Karabakh conflict can be resolved through compromise, since Baku is not ready to make concessions, according to him.
"Ilham Aliyev has great ambitions. He says that after regaining Karabakh, Azerbaijan will invade the Syunik region of Armenia to pave a direct way to Nakhijevan. Under the circumstances, speaking of mutual concessions is ridiculous," Tevanyan said.
