Expert: no concessions to be compelled from Armenia in Kazan

The main goal of Kazan-hosted meeting between the Presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia is to prevent resumption of hostilities and curb threats and warlike statements by Baku, according to David Jamalyan.

“I do not think that any scenario of the conflict settlement supposing groundless concessions will be imposed on the Armenian side in Kazan. Armenia’s position is not so weak to be forced to make concessions,” the military psychologist told a press conference in Yerevan.

Jamalyan believes that currently the time runs in the favor of Armenia, and both Armenian states must use it properly. Particularly, the expert proposed to speed up the process of settlement in some regions of Artsakh.

As regards Artsakh’s stand, the military psychologist noted that the leadership has presented its clear-cut approach saying that return to 1988 is excluded.
