Armenia, Azerbaijan displeased with OSCE MG mediationMarch 20, 2009 - 19:41 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Both Armenia and Azerbaijan are dissatisfied about MG OSCE mediation in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, which is being prolonged for objective reasons. Yerevan and Baku hold different positions, so the conflict is not likely to be resolved in the near future, the Armenian politologist Yervand Bozoyan told a news conference today. "Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is a serious issue and requires much time to be settled. Current negotiations do not allow for a resumption of hostilities in the conflict zone. Today's mediators will be followed by new ones. The conflict will be resolved in our favor only in case we become a strong country, with democracy and human rights as our primary values," the politologist noted. According to Yervand Bozoyan, for successful conflict resolution we have to strengthen pro-Armenian factor in the region. "Karabakh conflict settlement is a major game. To win it, Armenian needs to be developing and stop comparing itself to Azerbaijan. Baku has natural resources, but our strength is human resources, which, if used correctly, could turn Armenia into a strong and developed country," Bozoyan emphasized. ![]() ![]() Grigoryan added that the situation around the world and particularly in the region is very difficult.
