/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The meeting between Armenian and Azeri Presidents
in St. Petersburg put an end to the negotiation process on the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict till 2009, political scientist Levon
Melik-Shahnazaryan stated to a press conference in Yerevan. He said,
OSCE and particularly the Minsk Group exerted heavy pressures
on Armenia and Azerbaijan for adopting any agreement. "It was
very important for OSCE to reach a success because of the Kosovo
problem. However, the presidents could not come to an agreement, which
was expected," the Armenian political scientist said. He also thinks
that no military operations are expected till 2025. "Currently it is
very important to prepare for a variant of war during the remaining
10-15 years. Azerbaijan increases its arsenal, but I want to remind
that Azeris had 94-times superiority over Armenians in equipment in
1991. Armenia must be always ready for war," he said, adding that
despite some differences, the OSCE MG Co-Chairs have the same stance
in preventing any possible war.

At the same time he stressed, during their meeting with press in
Baku and Yerevan the OSCE MG Co-Chairs used to say such things
that people want to hear from them. "Those are diplomatic games,
which are a part for exerting pressure on the conflicting sides,"
the political scientist underscored.

As to if NKR belongs to Azerbaijan, Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan stated
that Nagorno Karabakh has never been a part of either Azerbaijan,
or Azeri SSR.

"During the soviet times NKAO obeyed central authorities in Moscow,
and in no way Baku.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
