Resumption of war is the most likely scenario - says political analyst (video)
Political analyst Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan says during the meeting of the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan in Vienna the parties will discuss the preconditions posed to Azerbaijan by Armenia. “The meeting will be a mere discussion. I think at this stage there is no chance to reach an agreement. No one is talking about the resumption of negotiations at this moment. However, I think this is a good opportunity for us to make our approaches more comprehensible to the world, since the three Foreign Ministers are there [in Vienna],” the political analyst said. Mr. Melik-Shahnazaryan says the position of the international community contributes to the ongoing tensions on the border. “Their statements became another factor contributing to further escalation of the situation,” he stressed. The political analyst says as a result of the four-day war unleashed by Azerbaijan, hostility between generations in Armenia and Azerbaijan will continue for 10-15 years. “I think the resumption of war is the most likely scenario, given the border tensions,” he said in conclusion.
