“After the end of the 2020 war, the Armenian-Azerbaijani and Armenian-Turkish negotiations are going on in a closed format, and we do not know anything about their progress. We will know when any document is signed between the parties, one of which, as the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said, was signed in Prague; The parties recognized each other’s territorial integrity based on the Alma-Ata agreement,” Turkologist Mushegh Khudaverdyan said at the “Media Center,” referring to Developments since the closure of the Berdzor Corridor.
Speaking about the meeting of foreign ministers held in Moscow, in which the Armenian side did not participate, the Russian foreign minister announced that he was informed about it not through an official channel but from the press and added that any refusal of any party to the negotiations would further complicate the situation of that party, expert of Azerbaijan Taron Hovhannisyan said that each state takes its steps based on its interests.
The same RF has a different approach to the issues of Donetsk and Luhansk, a different approach to the Artsakh issue, treats Ukraine differently, expects a different attitude in the case of Armenia, etc. According to the speaker, the problem should not be considered in the principles of universal justice, but in the given situation, in the interests of the given state. And in this regard, the approach presented by the Armenian side, as long as Azerbaijan violated the agreements by closing the Berdzor corridor, they do not see anything to discuss. He evaluates it quite positively. “We are not in a favorable situation at the moment to solve any problems in our favor. We have two options: to fully agree to the Azerbaijani and Turkish solutions offered to us at this moment and which, to put it mildly, no international player has any desire to help us and cause a confrontation, or to try to get some time.
