Ruben Hakobyan: Nagorno Karabakh in exchange for gas
The United States got down to normalization of Armenian Turkish relations. Resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is Russia's priority, according to director of analytical research center, political scientist Ruben Hakobyan.

"To all appearance, Turkish parliament will ratify the Protocols. Then, Karabakh talks will be intensified under Russia's aegis," he said. "Nagorno Karabakh is the price Russia will pay for 500 million cu m of gas it bought from Azerbaijan."
