No Change of Karabakh Talks Format Expected

PanARMENIAN.Net - Azerbaijan's attempt to change the format of the talks over settlement of the NK conflict and to transfer it from the OSCE to the UN is not new, political scientist Alexander Iskandaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. Azerbaijan wants to transfer the discussion of the issue to the UN, as any party to conflict has a right of veto at the OSCE. «Armenia exercised that right in Lisbon in 1996,» he said.



At that he noted that there will be no change in the format of the talks. «If change of OSCE format is not favorable to Armenia, it will not take place either now or in the near future: as one of the two players does not agree, the second remains alone. Whom will Azerbaijan talks to? As of Azerbaijan's desires, they can do anything they want,» Iskandaryan underscored.
