ArmInfo.A peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan is unlikely to be signed in the
foreseeable future, according to political scientist and Central Asia expert Arkady Dubnov.
The Russian expert expressed this position following the interview of
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev with RIA Novosti, where the
latter, in particular, stated: “A peace treaty and simultaneous
arming of Armenia are incompatible.” Dubnov noted that in addition to
Baku’s previous demands, which must be met before signing – changing
the Constitution of Armenia to remove Nagorno-Karabakh as part of
Armenia, and dissolving the OSCE Minsk Group on Karabakh as
unnecessary, since Armenia has already recognized this region as
part of Azerbaijan – a new demand has emerged: denial of Armenia’s
right to acquire weapons.
