Political analysts: "Settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict has reached its deadlock"

"Official Yerevan's stance on the Nagorno Karabakh problem is expected. Armenia thinks it has won the war, and Azerbaijan should make a trade-off. But, official Baku will not award Armenia," said Azerbaijani political scientist Rasim Musabeyov while commenting on official Yerevan's statement on deviation from the negotiating and inefficient results.

The political scientist told APA there was only one way of solution of the Nagorno Karabakh problem, "Super power states should influence Armenia. Otherwise, the negotiations will give no results and Yerevan will continue its unconstructive position as usual," he underlined.

Another political scientist Zardusht Alizadeh told the APA there are no real negotiations but only a view. "None of the parties want to retract their positions. There is no real ground for a compromise. Official Yerevan claims independence of Nagorno Karabakh and its unification with Armenia. Azerbaijan says it will never consent to Armenia's occupying any part of its territory. Outside these principles, there is no serious search for a trade-off and appeal to public and international organizations in the negotiating process. Taking surface political interests, both the parties to the conflict and the co-chairs are trying to find a solution option that will satisfy certain interests. However, the interests do not coincide. The parties should make public that they will not make any trade-off instead of creating a view. The U.S co-chair Matthew Bryza sated this. He said the parties do not seem to withdraw from the core principles they insist on. But, one of the parties need to withdraw from core principles in order to reach an agreement," the political scientist underlined.

Alizadeh also said there are some strong forces, who are making efforts for freezing and delaying the conflict. The political expert said the resolution of the conflict has reached a deadlock and the negotiations are held only for the sake of negotiations.

Political scientist Vefa Guluzadeh called the processes for the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict nonsense.
