Political scientist: PACE and Congress resolutions demonstrate that  Aliyev is shooting in the air

Political scientist: PACE and Congress resolutions demonstrate that  Aliyev is shooting in the air

ArmInfo.The recently adopted resolutions of the PACE and the House of Representatives of the US Congress demonstrated that Aliyev was shooting in the air. A similar opinion was expressed to ArmInfo by the Deputy Chairman of the "For  the Sake of the Republic" party, political scientist Ruben Mehrabyan.

"Just a few days ago, Aliyev told his own people that the Artsakh  issue had been resolved, and Nagorno-Karabakh no longer exists as a  subject. Aliyev also demanded from the world community from the UN  rostrum not to use the term Nagorno Karabakh. And we see that in  response to Aliyev's shots into the air international impulses  followed unprecedented in the period after the 44-day war, directly  or indirectly pointing to Aliyev's true place and significance, "he  stressed.

In a joint statement on September 24, the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs  reaffirmed their commitment to continue working with the parties to  the conflict to find comprehensive solutions to the remaining issues  on Karabakh. The co-chairs assessed the first meeting of the foreign  ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan after last year's war as a sign  of the two countries' determination to resume the peace process  through direct dialogue. However, the very next day, Ilham Aliyev  said that the Karabakh issue had been resolved, and since he had not  received any offers from MG after last year's war, it is  inappropriate to talk about the activities of the mediators.  On  September 27, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe  adopted a resolution "Humanitarian consequences of the conflict  between Armenia and Azerbaijan / Nagorno-Karabakh conflict". 47 PACE  representatives, including Armenia, voted for the adoption of the  document prepared by the Irish parliamentarian Paul Gavan. 16,  including Turkey and Azerbaijan, voted against, and 3 abstained. The  document includes information obtained following Gavan's visits to  Armenia and Azerbaijan and information provided by Armenian and  Azerbaijani politicians.

The very fact of the meeting of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs in the  office of the US President's National Security Advisor, in  Mehrabyan's opinion, already testifies to Washington's efforts to  intensify the negotiations on Artsakh within the MG. And judging by  the first results, the United States presented very convincing  arguments in favor of the formation of a consensus between the three  co-chair countries.

Assessing the current processes as gradual-phased, the political  scientist expressed his conviction that what is happening proceeds  from the interests of Armenia's national security. According to him,  the resolution adopted a few hours after Aliyev's next fit of  violence in the American Congress speaks volumes. And first of all,  about the latest trends in international politics.

On September 23, the US House of Representatives adopted a bill on  Azerbaijan and the conflict in Artsakh. In a document drawn up by  Tony Cardenas, Adam Schiff and Brad Sherman, Azerbaijan was required  to immediately release all Armenian prisoners and hostages. And the  US Secretary of Defense is responsible for submitting a report on  Azerbaijan's war crimes, including the use of prohibited weapons. And  also the use of American technologies in the combat Turkish UAVs  involved in Artsakh.

"Returning to the PACE resolution, of course, it should be noted that  it is by no means exclusively pro-Armenian.  However, the very fact  of Armenia's vote" for "its adoption, as opposed to" against  "Azerbaijan and Turkey, indicates the existence of harmony between  Yerevan and the European consensus. The ability of official Yerevan  to communicate with the world in an international language is  extremely important today. And we see that the formation of a  consensus between all three OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries  also, unambiguously, proceeds from our interests, "Mehrabyan summed  up
