    Appointment of Rudolf Perina may be qualified as USA's intention to
    strengthen its positions in Armenia as counterbalance to Russia

    Rudolf Perina took part in formation of the Dayton
    Agreement in 1995, which gave bases for the
    constitutional structure in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    existing up to present.

    The appointment of the new temporary chargé d'affaires for the USA in
    Armenia Rudolf Perina gives reason to see some things over. First of
    all there is an idea that the question of appointment of the
    Ambassador will take longer to be solved, and Perina, as a rather
    skillful diplomat, is needed in Armenia, moreover taking into account
    his large experience in conflict resolution processes.

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ According to the former Russian Ambassador Vladimir
    Kazimirov, he is not only a highly qualified professional but also an
    advocate of creative approach to the most complicated problems of
    Karabakh. `As far as I remember he has been one of the initiators of
    one of the most essential turning points of the resolution of this
    conflict. As it was mentioned the present OSCE Co-Chairs are also
    involved in the process and also come up with ideas of their own,'
    Kazimirov mentioned.

    It must be reminded that in 2002 the American diplomat, who is by the
    way specialist of conflicts, announced on the radio station Echo
    Moskvi; `The international community, I repeat, is not ready to
    recognize neither South Ossetia, nor Abkhazia or Transnistria as
    independent countries. The case with Nagorno-Karabakh is a little
    different, and negotiations are held between Armenia and Azerbaijan
    regarding the status of the mentioned region. The negotiations haven't
    given any specific outcomes yet; the international community supports
    the idea of territorial integrity of Azerbaijan and doesn't recognize
    Nagorno-Karabakh. We, the mediators try to help the two countries to
    find a solution.' In fact not having any other propositions, `the
    territorial integrity of Azerbaijan' is accepted. But as soon as the
    mediators, together with the President of Armenia and the President of
    Azerbaijan come to a common agreement, taking into account the will of
    the nations, the notorious principle may be forgotten.

    Appointment of Rudolf Perina may be qualified as USA's intention to
    strengthen its positions in Armenia as counterbalance to Russia. Most
    likely the new chargé d'affaires will have his indirect role in the
    works carried out by OSCE Minsk Group regarding the Nagorno-Karabakh
    Conflict resolution. This assumption may be grounded by the fact that
    Perina is perfectly familiar with conflict resolution processes and
    with Karabakh Conflict particularly. Moreover, Rudolf Perina took part
    in formation of the Dayton Agreement signed in 1995, which gave bases
    for the constitutional structure in Bosnia and Herzegovina existing up
    to present. The established system is considered to be ineffective,
    but by the reestablishment of the mutual confidence between the three
    nations; the Bosnians, the Serbs and the Croats, it will make things
    more complicated in case of cancellation. Lately the western countries
    have been calling on reconsidering the Dayton systems and the adoption
    of the traditional Constitution. This plan in particular would improve
    the relationship between European Union and Bosnia and
    Herzegovina. However, no particular agreement is reached regarding the
    issue.

    We should not ignore the possibility of a new US war in the region
    with Iran, but in this case Armenia will have to face the outcomes of
    the war as well and in this case diplomats capable of making quick
    decisions are needed. By the way Richard Hoagland is not the worst
    variant for a small country like Armenia. Most likely he will arrive
    in autumn. His viewpoint regarding the Armenian Genocide is the same
    with the one that the Administration and the US State Department has,
    though the fact that the US Ambassador to Israel recognizes Holocaust
    doesn't count in this case, as the Holocaust is officially recognized
    by the US Government. The recognition of the Armenian Genocide is far
    from the same destiny at present, and we don't think that the new
    temporary chargé d'affaires will dare to publicly speak about the
    recognition of the Armenian Genocide, for a diplomat has no right to
    express his personal viewpoint regarding such issues.
