/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Each single step undertaken over the past 20 years
was properly considered by Baku and Azerbaijan, Alexander Manasyan,
Head of YSU Theoretical Philosophy Chair told a news conference today.

According to him, Baku is currently resentful at the world, and Turkey
treats such policy with certain alertness. "Baku and Ankara have cast
their roles as ‘good’ and ‘bad’. Turkey has been trying to accede
to EU for several years. Refusal to acknowledge Genocide impedes the
process, that’s why the country now demonstrates a friendly attitude
and willingness to compromise," Manasyan said.

There are certain geopolitical causes preventing Baku from resorting
to war policy, he finds. "Baku does not want to take chances. But it
doesn’t want to renounce the policy of making bellicose statements
either. Its statements are ‘uncompromising’, but it always agrees to
bilateral meetings," Manasyan stressed.
