The United States will take every possibility to get hold of Azerbaijan as an ally against Iran, political scientist, orientalist David Hovhannisian told PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "In this view the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is bound with the Iranian problem. At that it should be noted that for the United States Iran in the number one tactical problem. Talks with Aliyev will be held on the whole scope of relations including the distribution of energy resources, U.S. influence upon the whole Caspian region and many others. Azerbaijan's geopolitical location as a transit state should also be taken into account. By the way, Azerbaijan has been for two years already providing its military and civic airdromes for the United States," Hovhannisian remarked.

In his words, the Muslim factor, that is Azerbaijan's outlet to the Central Asia Middle East, and plays a significant role here. "Over this very reason the meeting Ilham Aliyev has been for a long time dreaming of took place," David Honhannisian said.

The political scientist also noted that the U.S. may involve Armenia in the conflict with Iran. However, in his opinion, this will be not dangerous for Armenia. "The principle "the ally of the enemy" works, but Armenia should not fear of it. We will be apart of the conflict if such occurs," he underscored.
