/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia acts as a platform for meetings between
Armenians and Azerbaijanis, a Russian politician said.
"The influence of the United States and Russia should not be
overestimated. There is a conflict between two countries where
mediators have a limited commission. Armenia will not surrender lands,
Nagorno Karabakh will never be a part of Azerbaijan. What can they
do? Just wait some 20 or 40 more years?" said Alexey Mitrofanov,
member of Russian State Duma.
"Armenians will not surrender Karabakh even if Russia and the entire
world decide to support Azerbaijan. Nothing will change even if
Azerbaijan gifts its gas and $10 billion to Russia," he said.
According to Mitrofanov, a war is a way out but it will exhaust both
countries and produce no positive effect.
"The peculiarity of this conflict is the mentality of nations,"
he said, 1news.az reported.
