Azeri scientists are not ready to cooperate with their Armenian
colleagues.
“Our scientists are ready to cooperate while our Azeri colleagues
are not,” Head of the Yerevan Office of the International Science and
Technology Center Hamlet Navasardyan said in an interview to ArmInfo.
“The less politics the more science: there are problems that are
common not only for our region but for the whole world and in order
to solve them we need to cooperate,” Navasardyan said.
He noted that the only framework Armenian and Azeri scientists
cooperate in for the time being is the joint programs of the
International Science and Technology Center, whose members are Armenia,
Belarus, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Russia, and the Ukrainian
Science and Technology Center, whose members are Azerbaijan, Ukraine,
Moldova, Uzbekistan and Georgia.
“During our joint events Armenian and Azeri scientists discuss some
common regional problems, like river monitoring, but there is no
direct contact yet,” Navasardyan said.
