THEY IN BAKU KEEP ON SPEAKING ON POSSIBLE SURRENDER OF LOWER KARABAKH'S FOUR REGIONS BY ARMENIANS

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Azeri sources continue to insist on that the agreement on the surrender of four regions of lower Karabakh controlled by the NKR defense army to Azerbaijan by the Armenian forces was reached in Strasbourg last week. The refutation of this information made by Armenian MFA press secretary on Friday was taken by Baku as an intention to keep the confidentiality. "Undoubtedly, taking into consideration the type of the negotiations conducted by Oskanian in Strasbourg, it would be naive to count on any other reaction of the Armenian party", "552" the Azeri newspaper states. According to Baku political scientist Mubariz Ahmedoghlu, "the recent proposals of the Council of Europe regarding the settlement of the Karabakh issue might be considered acceptable for Azerbaijan". According to him, if the four regions are liberated, "the keeping of the other territories occupied will not be advantageous for Armenia as it will turn to a new blockade".
