Resumption of hostilities in Karabakh runs counter to the interests
of the European Union, according to political science professor at
Yerevan State University.
As Narek Galstyan told a news conference in Yerevan, “despite
energy benefits, the Union will not agree to unilateral support
of Azerbaijan.”
“The EU is interested in Azerbaijan as a transit point for energy
carriers from Central Asia. The Union is also interested in maintenance
of manageable stability in South Caucasus, as hostilities are well
capable to harm fragile gas pipes,” he noted.
