No progress is possible in the Armenian-Azerbaijani talks over
Nagorno-Karabakh settlement in the nearest future, Russian politician
Sergey Mikheev said, according to "Russia’s Voice".
"Russia’s Voice" radio station issued a material reading "Is compromise
over Karabakh issue possible?", where referring to Russian FM Sergey
Lavrov’s upcoming visit to Armenia, it notes that Russia is conducting
active mediator’s activity over Nagorno-Karabakh settlement.
Sergey Mikheev made his own forecasts in this view and said the
possibility for compromises is not that big currently.
"Unfortunately, the situation remains as complicated as it was in
the past years. Russia undertakes mediator’s efforts to settle the
issue and so it will continue. Russia’s disposition has not changed:
the conflict should be regulated, exceptionally peacefully. Anyway,
no quick progress should be expected here. To me, Yerevan and Baku
are not ready for compromise," he said.
