Vafa Guluzade "Turkey is willing to settle the Karabakh conflict.
It is interested in this issue more than others, but not everything
depends on this country. Certainly, Erdogan will touch upon this issue
during talks with Putin and Medvedev but I do not think it will
promote the soonest resolution of the Karabakh conflict", said
political scientist Vafa Guluzade commenting on the upcoming visit of
Turkish Premier Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Moscow.
According to the political scientist, the Karabakh conflict is one of
the most complicated conflicts in the world as the interests of very
many countries are interlaced in it.
"The United States are also viewing this conflict as a way and lever
of their influence on the region. Thus, if even Moscow can be
persuaded, we should also persuade Washington. This is such a
complicated knot of differences and interests that I am more
pessimistic in this issue. Both Moscow and Washington have occupied a
zero-risk position and insist that the parties should agree and they
will support any agreement. But everyone knows that they are cunning.
Armenia is not an independent state and, if these superpowers order
so, it will agree on any solution. But they will not do so. The world
superpowers benefit from protracting the conflict", he said.
