/PanARMENIAN.Net/ After each meeting between Armenian and Azeri
officials, OSCE MG Co-Chairs imitate progress in Karabakh settlement
talks, according to Richard Giragosyan, Head of Armenian Center for
National and International Studies (ACNIS). "I am mostly concerned
by OSCE MG’s sudden activeness. What they call progress may not be
progress at all," he told a news conference commenting upon Armenian
And Azeri FMs’ meeting on the sidelines of OSCE Foreign Ministers
Summit in Athens.

Absence of democracy appears to be the main problem of Armenia and
Azerbaijan, Armenian expert finds. "How can countries solve problems if
they do not even trust their leaders? If not involved in the process,
Armenian and Azeri societies will not approve any decision concerning
Karabakh conflict settlement," Giragosyan noted.

With regard to Turkish delegation’s upcoming visit to Washington, he
said, "This is the last day for Turkish Parliament’s International
Relations Committee to pass final decision on Armenian-Turkish
Protocols."
