Vafa Guluzade: "Garabag conflict will still be frozen as international
power forces take no interest in just solving of this problem".

Talks held to regulate Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict have almost
come to impasse. The society which lost the trust in OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs, mediators between sides, feel the necessity of change the
talk format.

Defense of Armenian position by Russian and French co-chairs gives
the essence to above conclusion. Minister of Foreign Affairs of
Azerbaijan, Elmar Mamadyarov, holds that the change of talk format
will bring no result to solve the problem. Accordingly to Minister,
if OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs representing 3 of 5 member-states of
UN Security Council, fail to reach the peace then change of talk
format will bring no results. It should be stated here that despite
the fact that along with UK and Chine (another two members of UN
Security Council), OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, Russia, USA and France
signed the UN resolutions accordingly to which Armenian military
forces should leave occupied territories Azerbaijan, now these 3
member-states prefer to pass these details over. Political scientist,
head of Fund on Caspian Researches, Vafa Guluzada, thinks that there
is no format relating to Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict regulation.

Accordingly to political scientist, who advices to review recent
history of Azerbaijan, the most sorrowful stage in the history of
Azerbaijan is giving Zangezur to Armenia. "Azerbaijan was once
again divided by giving Zangezur to Armenia. The communications
with Nakhchivan was broken. Today Azerbaijan even doesn’t demands
Zangezur. If there is any talk format on returning Zangezur then
there is the one on return of the rest territories". Accordingly
to V. Guluzade, UN Security Council created OSCE Minsk Group to
conceal its faults. "If you pay attention, co-chairs ignore UN
Security Council resolutions on Garabagh as if there is no any of
such resolution at all. It means that co-chairs can’t do anything to
solve this problem. In general, I can say basing on talks which have
been held up to date there is no perspective of peaceful regulation
of the problem. If Azerbaijan starts military operations to liberate
its territories, UN Security Council member-states, OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs being blind with regard to Armenian aggression, won’t allow
Azerbaijan to take such step. That is why no change is observed in
regulation of the conflict in question". V. Guluzade also said that by
keeping Azerbaijan in uncertainty co-chairs aims to make Azerbaijan
voluntarily give up fight for its territories. "They believe that if
Azerbaijani nation which gave such an immense territory as Zangazur
at the same time dividing this country to Armenia, why shouldn’t
Azerbaijan give up the fight to return Nagorni Garabagh and neighboring
regions? But they forget that Azerbaijani leadership will never agree
to sign "peace agreement" proposed by co-chairs". Political scientist
doesn’t rule out that the conflict related situation will remain
unchanged for a long time. Accordingly to V. Guluzade’s forecast the
conflict will be still frozen, "as international power forces take
no interest in just solving of this problem. They are endeavoring at
any cost to make Azerbaijan agree with peace which will be in favor
of only Armenia, but it is impossible. To say that Minsk Group is
able to solve the problem is to show lack of knowledge, that is why
yet there is no solution."

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
