U.S. supports a rapid settlement of Karabakh conflict, yet on
Azerbaijan- suggested terms, according to the head of Caucasus
Department of the CIS Institute.As Mikhail Alexandrov told a news
conference in Yerevan, the U.S. aims to create a military and political
corridor stretching from the Black Sea to the Caspian Region.

“The U.S. has taken Georgia under its influence, it’s now Azerbaijan’s
turn,” the expert said. “Azerbaijan avoids adopting a specific
position, as joining NATO or creation of a U.S. military base in
Azerbaijan may deteriorate the latter’s relations with Russia and
Iran.”

“However, if the West offers Karabakh in exchange for integration
into a western military and political structure, Azerbaijan won’t be
able to decline such an offer,” he noted, adding that most probably,
certain agreements with Azerbaijani President have been reached,
which explains U.S.’ supporting Azeri position in Karabakh conflict.
