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%.
