Karabakh conflict resolution unlikely in coming yearsDecember 3, 2008 - 17:54 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - To resolve the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, Russia should find a solution that will secure its political influence in Armenia, a Russian expert said. "Russia can't press on parties to conflict but does everything in its power for its resolution. New initiatives will emerge. Russia, like the U.S. and EU, will support any decision admissible for the sides. At the same time, the resolution should allow implementation of military and political projects in Armenia and maintain positive relations with Azerbaijan," said Alexander Karavayev, expert at information and analytical center of Moscow State University. He also noted that Turkey is one of Russia's economic partners in the region. "I think a new configuration should be found to resolve the Karabakh conflict but its' hardly possible in the coming years," he said, 1news.az reports. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
