"Belligerence of Baku, now seems unjustified and is a sign of its
nervousness", – thinks international observer of the "News Time"
edition Arkady Dubnov. As "Echo of Moscow" informs, in his opinion,
"No breakthrough can be expected from the Munich negotiations between
the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan."
Yesterday in Munich took place the sixth meeting of the presidents of
Armenia and Azerbaijan, Serzh Sargsyan and Ilham Aliyev, after which
the OSCE co-chairs issued a statement according to which the talks
which lasted 4 hours, were constructive. In some areas, progress was
made, while at the same time, some questions still remain open. The
Presidents instructed their foreign ministers to continue working
with the Co-Chairs and the mediators.
The "Echo of Moscow" reminds that two days before the meeting the head
of Azerbaijan stated that the Munich meeting will be decisive. And
if it does not bring any results, then the war will be resumed in the
region. In Yerevan, this statement was viewed as a challenge not only
to Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, but also to the entire international
community. Meanwhile, the political scientists are not inclined to
perceive the threats of Ilham Aliyev seriously.
"I do not think that resumption of hostilities between Azerbaijan and
Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh issue is possible, and the speeches
made by the President of Azerbaijan, two days ago, in my opinion,
prove that in Baku are too annoyed with the possible improvements of
the relations between Turkey and Armenia", -Arkady Dubnov stressed.
The observers in Armenia too are calling for not paying attention
to the threats having a military character. On this occasion "Ekho
Moskvy" writes: "They note that this is not the first such attack.
Armenia urged the international community to take Azerbaijan in hand.
Otherwise, all the work to solve the age-old conflict will come
to nothing."
