Armenians backed off - they will not recognize Karabakh

Today during a few hours Armenia has changed its own opinion on the issue of recognition of Nagorno Karabakh. So at 11:00 o'clock in the morning at a government session was approved the bill on Karabakh's recognition and sent to Parliament, which included the issue in the agenda of the extraordinary meeting of 10 May. However, late in the afternoon Yerevan’s mood suddenly changed. Initially, a spokesman for the prime minister Gohar Gasparyan on his page on Facebook wrote that "the government has approved at today's meeting of the  draft law submitted by the two deputies on the recognition of independence of Nagorno Karabakh. In conclusion, was noted that the Government binds the adoption of the bill, taking into account the discussions between Armenia and Karabakh and the subsequent developments, including external factors. Therefore, at this stage, the government did not give approval of the bill on recognition of Nagorno Karabakh's independence. "

Then  the Deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia Shavarsh Kocharyan said that "the question of the recognition of Karabakh will be included in the agenda of the Armenian Parliament in the case of new aggression of Azerbaijan." After the announcement of the inclusion of the bill on the agenda of the parliament, presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov said diplomatically that Moscow hopes that the parties will avoid steps that could upset the delicate truce.  Following this, the head of the Committee of the State Duma for CIS Leonid Slutsky openly stated that "the bill could lead to an escalation of violence on the border, which is unacceptable." We can only guess what conversations took place today between Moscow and Yerevan, which made Armenia to reverse  so quickly. -02В-
