Azeri dramatist slams military solution to Karabakh conflict as crime

PanARMENIAN.Net - Military solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict would be a crime, Azerbaijani-American screenwriter, dramatist and producer Rustam Ibragimbekov said.

"To an extent, Karabakh events prompted the collapse of the Soviet Union. Currently, the whole world is involved in the settlement of Karabakh conflict. The societies of the two countries are dissatisfied with current state of events, which in turn, may lead to a new war in view of stalled negotiations," Ibragimbekov said urging for public diplomacy.

The screenwriter is confident that Armenian people are not the enemies of Azerbaijanis, the tragedy having affected both nations.

In conclusion, Ibragimbekov spoke against cultivating hatred, calling for establishment of human relations, lest that chance is lost for good, Rosbalt said.
