Rasim Musabeyov is upbeat on the results of the Munich meeting between the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Political scientist Rasim Musabeyov is upbeat on the results of the Munich meeting between the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia and the agreement of the Armenian side to withdraw its troops from the occupied lands and postpone the issue of Karabakh status.
The political scientist said the following: “The issue of the corridor width that Azerbaijan will open for Armenia for the temporary communication with Nagorno Karabakh is still discussed and consultations in this regard will continue on a high level. The issue of terms of defining Nagorno Karabakh’s status will also be discussed”.
“Azerbaijan’s stiff military rhetoric and definite signals from Russia seem to have influenced Armenia’s position which earlier hoped to protract the resolution of the Karabakh conflict. The United States also contributed as the Armenian Diaspora complained that the superpowers were putting too much pressure on Yerevan. But I think Azerbaijan’s stiff position was the main component that intensified international mediators, Musabeyov noted.
“I would like to note that no one has a right to order Azerbaijan whether to start war or not and Armenia seems to have realized it. Azerbaijan kept silence when during the next meetings of the presidents Armenian troops held trainings in Nagorno Karabakh and when after the high level talks President Sargsyan returned to Nagorno Karabakh and blatantly took part in the armed trainings”, Musabeyov said.
