PanARMENIAN.Net – Armenian Turkologist is sceptical that the statement
by OSCE Secretary General Lamberto Zannier, suggesting Turkey can
officially mediate Karabakh settlement carries the force of law.

However, in a conversation with PanARMENIAN.Net reporter Ruben
Melkonyan expressed concern over the statement, which might mean
that Turkey is working towards increasing its presence in conflict
mediation.

The expert characterized Turkey’s involvement in conflict settlement
as unacceptable, considering Ankara’s pro-Azeri position.

As a return step, Melkonyan suggested Armenia make a similar statement
to present its position on the issue.
