GENERATION CHANGE NECESSARY TO SOLVE KARABAKH CONFLICT

PanARMENIAN.Net - The solution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is possible in 20-25 years at least, Head of the Department of Conflictology and Migration of the Institute of Peace and Democracy in Baku Arif Yunusov told PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words, the level of the Armenian-Azeri relations is very low today. There is no confidence between the peoples and each party is only sure it is right. «The relations can be called mirror-like, as both the Armenian and the Azeri parties call each other aggressors, media in both countries equally cover the problems from their own point of view,» Yunusov noted. In his words, the solution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is virtually impossible - especially under the rule of the current Armenian authorities. For the conflict to be solved a change of generations is necessary, as only the new generation, being tired of the constant hostility, will come to reconciliation. As noted by Yunusov, there are 3 options for the developments regarding this problem. The first is the signing of a peace accord, however both the Armenian and the Azeri peoples are not ready to it. He called this opinion a fantastical one. The second option is that of Cyprus. And the third one is the Near East or the Israeli opinion, which provides for periodical hostilities and protracted talks until the parties are tired of fighting. Commenting on the fact that the parties to conflict do not meet within the OSCE MG today, Yunusov noted it confirmed the talks have come to a stalemate. At that he noted calling the Karabakh conflict a «Karabakh» one was incorrect. In his words, it is «a pure Armenian-Azeri conflict.»
