Meeting in Brussel was a small step – Paul Goble
Baku/08.04.22/Turan: On April 6, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan held a meeting in Brussels, hosted by President of the European Council Charles Michel.
Famous US political scientist Paul Goble commenting with Turan news agency the results of the meeting said:
“This represents a small step forward in that there actually is a commitment to work up a document of the kind Baku has been calling for, but it is only a small step because it does not address all the issues involved and because border delimitation cannot possibly be completed unless and until there is an agreement on Qarabagh and the Lachin corridor”.
As concerning issue of Nagorno-Karabakh which not mentioned in the final statement, he said:
“That Qarabagh and Lachin were not mentioned is a clear indication that the sides are trying to bracket them for discussion and decision later, but both are certain to find that absent accord on those issues, agreement on others will be difficult if not impossible”. -0-
