Political scientist Aghasi Yenokyan and representatives of the Armenian
Republican Party (HHK), Armen Ashotyan, shared their opinions on
Karabakh conflict at Club "Hayeli" today.

"I do not see any progress in this issue. No development is noticeable
in this conflict. Time is not working for us now because in time our
relative strength is declining in the region," Yenokyan said referring
to recent economic and military developments in Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Ashotyan disagreed saying "NKR is a de facto recognized separate
official structure" and its legal recognition is a subject of
"favorable conditions."

Ashotyan believes time is working in favor of Armenia and Nagorno
Karabakh.

Despite of differences in opinion, both speakers are sure that today
Nagorno Karabakh conflict is not an urgent issue for Azerbaijan.
