Kocharian-Aliyev Meeting Likely to Yield No Result, Yunusov Says
The meeting of Robert Kocharian and Ilham Aliyev scheduled for early December in Moscow is likely to yield no result, said Arif Yunusov, the Director of the Department of Conflictology at the Institute of Peace and Democracy when commenting on the expectations from the forthcoming presidential meeting. "Formally, proceeding from the information on the latest meeting of the FMs in Minsk the Presidents are expected to sign a framework agreement. However I do not believe in it. I suppose the meeting will prove fruitless," he said. At that the Azeri expert remarked that 'there is a breakthrough' in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement. "The American plan frequently called the Prague Process is coming to its logical end. But it will share the fate of the former plans on the conflict settlement (common state, stepwise plan or package plan) and will simply become a part of history," he said, reports Day.az.
