View from Washington: The Karabakh conflict being unsolved is  preconditioned by  contradictions between Armenia and Azerbaijan  leaders with the interests of simple people. 

ArmInfo.Karabakh conflict being unsolved is preconditioned by contradictions between Armenia and Azerbaijan leaders with the interests of simple people. Such a  statement was made by Nikolay Zlobin, the president and the Founder  of the  Global Studies Center (Washington D.C.) 

In this meaning the reason of  Karabakh problem being unsolved is in  the absence of political shape of human choice idea. The things  desired by people not by authorities. In my opinion, the self  determination of nations, of course, prevails on the immunity and  territorial integrity of any state. Being a liberal, I am sure that  people are more important than the power, and if they want to live  how they want to, no one should raise  obstacles for that - in  Crimea, in Karabakh or anywhere else," he accentuated. 

Hence, according to Zlobin, the problem is not  in the armaments  supplied to Azerbaijan, but in the absence of intellectual idea of  exit from the dead end capsulated around Nagorno Karabakh. Mentioning  the armaments global market being open, the expert mentioned that the  main reason of mutual understanding absence between Baku and Yerevan  is absolutely not the Russian armaments supplies. 

The transformation of the conflict into burning phase  strictly  contradicts to the interests of Russia. It is obvious that getting  one more fire at southern borders in not of Russia's  interests and  profit. And here I would like to mention the expedient manner of   Moscow actions in respect to armaments sales and final beneficiaries  of that," the political expert mentioned.  

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, in  2012-2016 the armaments purchases of Azerbaijan exceeded Armenin  puchases in 20 times. Azerbaijan, with its 4%, entered the first five  of countries buying the main part of   Russian armaments export  volumes: India (38%), Vietnam (11%), China (11%) and Algeria (10%).  The Russian share in global armaments export formed 23%.

Полагаю, что в настоящих условиях єкономические потери и душевные травмы, которые несут стороны т. н. замороженных конфликтов, могут причинять не меньшую боль, чем при их горячей фазе. Карабахское противостояние, где сторонам - заложникам все еще не удается найти общий язык, несмотря на волю, не побоюсь сказать, большинства, начать менять риторику и возвращаться в нормальное состояние. Мешает єтому пока деляческий и торгашеский дух, пропитавший атмосеру международных и человеческих отношений. Г-н Р. Кочарян, второй президент РА, с его приближенными, не признавали в свое время ни один из разумных аргументов на компромисс в самый разгар войны в Карабахе и в последующем. Ценой жертв, грязной клеветы, атмосферы страха, крови, пролитой в парламенте, а позже на улицах Еревана, ему и иже с ним, удалось счастливо законсервировать конфликт, с угрозой возникновения его горячей фазы в любое время, устраивающее господствующие державы, тем самым взяв на себя ответственность перед народом, и перед Богом. Я верю,что народ, в конечном итоге, отплатит им сторицей.

Думаете ли вы,что Я пришел дать мир земле нет, говорю вам, но разделение Лука 12.51 Все дано нам в єтом мире, всем и каждому, свыше, во временное пользование. Первый президент Армении, рискуя многим, почти двадцать лет назад четко поставил вопрос или мы, армянский народ, - за поиски мира, или за продолжение войны в любой форме, в т. ч. замороженной. До сих пор мы практически не сделали ничего для решения єтого судьбоносного вопроса. Мир - состояние духа, дар от Бога. Мир есть чудо само в себе. Плоды мира можно вкусить ощутив цельность всего на Земле. Мир не отвоевывают, к нему не принуждают. В противном случае, такой мир есть фикция. Спекуляции и торги с миром - лишняя трата времени. Впрочем, не для тех, для кого принуждение к миру - єто вопрос престижа, и способ вести свои дела, и финансовые в т.ч. Большинство в реальной жизни, при современном состоянии дел, расплачивается за предложенную правителями фикцию, удовлетворяясь предлагаемой Систмою выбором между меньшим и большим злом. Добра, вроде бы, нет в природе. Впрочем, не во вред нам, в соответствии с библейской истиной, все, что невозможно людям - возможно Богу.
