The key achievement of the peace talks over Nagorno-Karabakh is
the country’s involvement in consultative discussions together
with Armenia and the OSCE Minsk Group, Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan,
a political analyst, has said.
“Nagorno-Karabakh, as a subject, is actively involved in the process
this year, the fact already signaling recognition,” he told a news
conference on Thursday. “It is noteworthy that several western
diplomats highlight the importance of involving Karabakh in the
negotiations to avoid a stalemate.”
The expert said the transfer of Russia’s chairmanship to the other
co-chairing countries of the Minsk Group was an essential shift in
the process.
“No matter who has assumed chairmanship, we realize it is very hard
to achieve a political decision. That’s why we will try to implement
social programs. The western diplomats, whenever I speak to them,
say Artsakh’s independence will be recognized, but they don’t know
how,” he added.
