/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `Armenia is awaiting parliamentary and presidential
election after which it will become weaker. Armenians guess about
it. That is why the tough position it held on the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict is growing somewhat uncertain. Due to this reason they admit
the possibility of concessions from their part,’ Director of the
Center of Innovation and Political Technologies Mubariz Ahmedoglu
stated when commenting on the situation in the South Caucasus. In his
words, `Azerbaijan should wait with the conflict settlement until the
completion of elections in Armenia.’

As for the U.S.’s position on the conflict settlement, especially in
the light of Ilham Aliyev’s recent visit to Washington, the political
scientist said the `U.S. sees the settlement of conflicts in the post
soviet space within the framework of territorial integrity.’ `The
U.S. is now thinking over the soonest settlement of the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict in order to proceed to the determination of Kosovo’s
status without hindrance,’ Mubariz Ahmedoglu stated, reported Mirror
Baku-based newspaper.
