Threats to Baku on the resumption of war in the Karabakh conflict zone are rather directed to Moscow than Yerevan, Ruben Mehrabyan, the expert of the Armenian Center for Political and International Studies told a press conference in Yerevan. According to him, therefore, Azerbaijan gives signal to Russia to intensify the mediation efforts to resolve the Karabakh-Azerbaijani conflict.

"Baku warns Moscow, playing an active ever role in addressing the problem, what might happen if negotiations do not record a progress. And there are no signs of progress," the political scientist said, stressing that the possibility of the resumption of hostilities is very small.

The negotiating process is continuing and is controlled, which is very important, he said. In his opinion, the current process of Karabakh settlement is delayed not in favor of Armenia and not promising anything good to the Armenian side. In terms of transport and energy benefits, the interests of the superpowers is the South Caucasus are increased, which opens new opportunities for Azerbaijan, and brings serious challenges to Armenia. "Armenia cannot only hope for a favorable power balance in the region. Resources Armenian are within the country, and should be mobilized. The retreat of democracy in the country only weaken our position becoming a "sword of Damocles" over Armenia, " Ruben Mehrabyan said.
