/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Formally the Minsk process was not stopped. The
OSCE MG is a format created for contribution to the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement. But since 2001 it has been frozen, political
scientist, rector of the Caucasus Media Institute Alexander
Iskandaryan said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net. In his
words, recently attempts to activate the work of the OSCE Minsk
Group can be observed. "The latest visit of the Co-chairs is a
proof. However I do not think that quick resolution of the conflict
is possible. Unfortunately the positions of the sides are rather far
away from each other.

Thus, it’s senseless to expect a final resolution during the coming
year or two," he said

At that the political scientist said that energy essential for
activation of the Minsk process is being accumulated and this can lead
to deepening of useful contacts between Armenia and Azerbaijan. "Thus,
a dialogue between the sides was resumed. However it does not mean
a quick resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Anyway, talks
are better than their complete absence," Iskandaryan underscored.
