/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "It would be better to resolve the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict in the framework of the CIS," said Russian State Duma member
Oleg Kulikov.
"The only wayout for Azerbaijan and Armenia is to encourage integration
processes, i.e. to establish closer ties at the post-soviet space and
strengthen the CIS. Only a renewed post-soviet union will manage to
resolve these problems," Oleg Kulikov said.
"There is a little chance for resolution of the Karabakh problem in the
near future because it’s gainful for outer forces. Russia is sincerely
interested in settlement of the conflict but now it has more pressing
issues to resolve – relations with Ukraine and Belarus, problem in the
Islamic world, consolidation of the Afghan factor and fundamentalist
factor in the North Caucasus," he said, Trend news agency reports.
