Gurgen Yegiazaryan "But the war may become real, if the United States,
for example, or any other superpower pushes the parties toward
this step".

Armenian former deputy minister of National Security Gurgen
Yegiazaryan commenting on the statement by director of the US National
Reconnaissance, Dennis Blair, who said war between Armenia and
Azerbaijan is possible has said: "I do not think that this statement
gives grounds to think so". He believes that despite Azerbaijan’s
bellicose rhetoric, it is not threatening to grow into hostilities
between the parties so far. "Such a statement proves West’s interest
in acceleration of several processes in the South Caucasus", he added.

Yegizaryan also said that we have already been in the state of
instability for already 20 years in terms of conflicts in the
Caucasus. "But the war may become real, if the United States, for
example, or any other superpower pushes the parties toward this step",
Yegizaryan announced.

Earlier, Dennis Blair, director of the US National Reconnaissance,
said during the hearings of the Senate Committee on Reconnaissance
issues that the situationsin the Balkans and the Caucasus remains
unstable. "War between Armenia and Azerbaijan is possible", Blair said.
