ArmInfo. The position of Azerbaijan remains unchanged: no contacts
with Armenian scientists.
As Head of the International Science and Technology Center (ISTC)
Office in Yerevan Hamlet Navasardyan told ArmInfo, the ban on
cooperation has covered all the levels, no matter whether it is the
work on joint projects or participation in conferences. Furthermore,
difficulties arise when organizing events in other countries, where
scientists from Armenia and Azerbaijan are to participate.
Navasardyan said that he tried to involve the Armenian party in
participation in training courses organized in Azerbaijan by the
Ukrainian Science and Technology Center in collaboration with ISTC.
"However, we were replied that Azerbaijan can’t ensure the Armenian
scientists’ security",- Navasardyan said. At the same time, Armenia
and Azerbaijan have common problems connected, for instance, with
pollution of rivers and migration of animals. "The field of activity
exists, however, in this matter we face the tough resistance of the
Azeri party",- Navasardyan concluded.
