RUSSIAN EXPERTS THINK, "THE GOBL PLAN" WAS INITIALLY NOT REAL"

PanARMENIAN.Net - . The plan of the ex-high-ranking worker of the State Department of the USA, Paul Gobl on Nagorni Karabakh conflict settlement by the territorial exchange between Armenia and Azerbaijan " was initially doomed to fail". Most Russian politics experts, who appealed to the recent statement of the Mohammed Farkhad Koleyni, the ambassador of Iran in Armenia that hereafter " the question of the territory exchange is not on agenda", adhere to this opinion. The Iran diplomat also mentioned, that " such an exchange could prevent the relations of Armenia with its neighbors, and that would contradict to Yerevan national interests". Many Russian experts mention that it is not accidental that the Iran ambassador made this statement namely. Alexander Iskandaryan, the director of the Caucasus study center (Moscow) mentioned "Nowadays the Iran people feel sure in this region, and the statement done by them gives evidence of it". According to other Russian politics expert, Boris Makarenko (the Center of political technologies), the Iran side first of all wanted to inflict a blow on the USA interests by making such a statement. But, as Makarenko thinks the Iran ambassador in Yerevan behaved himself " at least not correctly". Islamic Republic of Iran, as it is known, is neither immediate conflict side, nor the country-intermediate. "The plans of the territory exchange are particulars, the most basic is the Nagorni Karabakh status" was stated by the Moscow Karnegi center scientific council member, Alexey Malashenko. The Nagorni Karabakh status definition, as Malashenkî thinks, is unlikely, at least until the change of Azerbaijani government. But in any case, according to the Moscow Karnegy center expert words, Azerbaijan will have to get used, that " this problem is serious and it is for long time". Taking into consideration that Nagorny Karabakh status is not determined, the Nagorni Karabakh problem solution is delicate and continuos and also that there are refugee problem, Aleksey Malashenko thinks that it is quite possible "further situation worsening" in the region of Karabakh opposition.
