David Jamalyan: Baku’s diversions unlikely to develop into serious warSeptember 10, 2010 - 13:27 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Member of the Public Council at the RA Ministry of Defense, military psychologist David Jamalyan said that Russia made it very clear that the scenario of large-scale hostilities in the zone of the Karabakh conflict is undesirable for it.” Commenting on Azerbaijan’s subversive attacks, Jamalyan told a press conference in Yerevan that Azerbaijan is well aware of Russia’s stance. Thus, it is trying to create tenseness at the frontline of the Karabakh and Azerbaijani Armed Forces to change the situation. “Our stance is of keen importance in it, in other words Karabakh’s status should be defined prior to other issues. If we recede from this, the external pressure on Armenia will be intensified,” noted Jamalyan. He added that Baku’s diversions are a part of Azerbaijan’s political scenario. “I do not think that they will develop into a serious war. The threat of war remains, but I consider it to be unlikely in the near future,” concluded Jamalyan. Caucasus Institute director said that the past year was not remarkable for outstanding foreign policy events in Armenia. Yerkir: serious reshuffle is expected at the Republican Party of Armenia after Tsarukyan’s refusal to join coalition.
