Bellicose statements will be heard more frequently in Azerbaijan
on the threshold of presidential election, according to the head of
Christian Democratic Union of Armenia.
"If earlier we presumed that the rhetoric is a tool of internal policy,
now we see clearly that Azerbaijan blackmails the international
community. We should understand what makes Azerbaijan hope for
resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict by use of force. It’s
not efficiency of the army but the closed Armenian-Turkish border,
a factor which hampers a just settlement," Khosrov Harutyunyan told
a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
The real outcome of 10-year talks is that the international community
came to understand that the problem can’t be resolved without taking
into account the rights of Karabakh people. "Allegations about
territorial integrity are rather shaky, specifically in case with
Azerbaijan," he said.
