ArmInfo.The political results of the next meeting of the spiritual leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan, Garegin II and Allahshukur Pashazade, boil down to another emphasis on the role of Russia in the Karabakh settlement. In this case, the personal role of Patriarch Kirill, in the matter of "pacification" of the parties. Such an opinion was expressed by ArmInfo ex-NKR Foreign Minister, independent analyst Arman Melikyan.Tripartite meeting of spiritual leaders of Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijanon the resolution of the Karabakh conflict was held on September 8 inMoscow. As a result, Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II, the PatriarchMoscow and All Russia Kirill, Chairman of the Office of MuslimsCaucasus Haji Allahshukur Pashazadeh signed a joint statement.
"Unfortunately, it was the mediation of the ROC that inappropriately politicized this meeting." Perhaps, if such meetings were held as a joint initiative of the Patriarch and the head of Russia's Muslims, they could look less ridiculous. "Here we could talk about Russia's desire to establish mutual understanding between the Armenian and Azerbaijani clergy in the framework of inter-confessional dialogue, "he stressed.At the same time, Melikyan considers it expedient to hold such meetings of the Armenian and Azerbaijani clergy without intermediaries, regretfully noting the impossibility of changing the existing format in the near future due to a number of political and other factors.
The analyst believes that, by and large, the dialogue and jointly agreed program of actions aimed at reducing the level of mutual hostility and aggressiveness of the Armenian and Azerbaijani clergy could certainly help to implement sound political steps to settle the conflict and establish long-term peace in the region." However, unfortunately, so far the process of political settlement is at an impasse, and spiritual leaders are not ready to assume responsibility for the real normalization of interethnic relations." In such realities, it is senseless to expect practical positive results for the parties to the conflict from the meeting of clerics, "the analyst concluded.
