/PanARMENIAN.Net/ For 2 years Armenian society demanded Madrid
principles’ publication, so it had to happen sooner or later, Caucasus
Institute Director, politologist Alexander Iskandaryan told a news
conference in Yerevan.

"In my opinion, there are 2 reasons for Madrid principles’
publication. First, it’s impossible to protract a conflict any
longer and publication of principles is a method of pressure on
both countries’ societies, a way to arise discussions within the
society. Second, there might soon occur some significant events in
Armenian-Turkish relations before October, and Ankara will be the
initiator of those events," Armenian politologist emphasized.

He also added that Madrid principles is a rather raw framework
agreement, stressing that within 2 years since the principles were
drawn, the parties did not come to an agreement.

According to Alexander Iskandaryan, NKR conflict structure does not
allow of fast solutions to the issue.
