    KAMIL AGHACAN: ARMENIA WILL TRY TO ESTABLISH ECONOMIC RELATIONS WITH AZERBAIJAN AND TURKEY IN EXCHANGE FOR WITHDRAWAL FROM OCCUPIED REGIONS

    Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
    June 7 2007

    "There is "a constructive uncertain situation" in the current
    settlement process on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Everyone comments
    on the situation in his favor", Geopolitical and Strategic Research
    of the Eurasian Strategic Researches Center (ASAM) chief of Caucasus
    Department Kamil Aghacan told APA.

    He said Armenian and Azerbaijani Presidents and OSCE Co-chairs know
    the most precise situation on the conflict. "The first question that
    rises is that- will Azerbaijan let Armenia to hold referendum in
    Nagorno Karabakh in exchange for return of seven regions by Armenia?

    I do not suppose Azerbaijan take such a step. Then will Armenia
    withdraw from seven regions? I partly believe that Armenia will
    withdraw its Armed Forces but it will be done in exchange for
    serious concessions. Beside, issue on Lachin corridor will be settled
    separately. Armenia never considered these seven regions as its.

    Seven occupied regions was always economic and diplomatic burden.

    Because, the army controlling occupied territories needs food and
    equipment. I think Armenia will try to establish economic relations
    with Azerbaijan and Turkey in exchange for withdrawal from 7 regions.

    Because, Armenia's economy is on the edge of collapsing".

    Kamil Aghacan said the deployment of peacekeeping forces in the
    region will remove from agenda Azerbaijan's military invasion to the
    region. Peacekeeping forces will be deployed on the front line of
    liberated territories which will vanish probability of Azerbaijani
    military invasion to Nagorno Karabakh. It means that Nagorno Karbakh
    will be frozen problem be deploying peacekeeping forces there. It is
    to be mentioned that until today Armenia required independence for
    Nagorno Karabakh in exchange for withdrawal from seven regions but it
    failed. On the other hand, it is not to imagine Armenian's situation
    if west impose sanction on Iran which will lead to the closing borders
    between Iran and Armenia. Armenian first of all wants to escape from
    economical complications.
