    DOES MAMEDYAROV SECURE SARGSYAN'S REAR

    If the Azerbaijani media did not mutate what their Foreign Minister
    Mamedyarov said, so the latter stated that they did not reach any new
    agreement with the Armenian new government, in connection with the
    Nagorno-Karabakh issue settlement. Moreover, Mamedyarov stated that
    they had agreed on "everything" with the previous administration,
    in other words with Robert Kocharyan.

    Mamedyarov did not go into details. Probably, it was not even
    necessary. He told as much as it was needed. The question occurs, who
    needed what he stated. Of course, first of all, it is Azerbaijani which
    needs what he said, because in this case Armenia is represented as an
    unconstructive side of the negotiations. But, the Azerbaijani Foreign
    Minister issued a statement, which the Armenian government needs too.

    The point is that, from Mamedyarov's statement, the impression is
    created that Azerbaijan was more satisfied with the negotiation
    process with the Kocharyan's administration. And, if Mamedyarov was
    more satisfied with the Armenian previous government, this would mean
    that Kocharyan had made more compromises which is the reason why they
    had agreed on "everything", as Mamedyarov noted.

    The result is that Serge Sargsyan's administration is represented
    under the veil of a government, which is not willing to compromise. If
    Azerbaijan is dissatisfied with Serge Sargsyan, this means that
    the latter is more unbreakable in relation to the Nagorno-Karabakh
    question. While in Armenia, Serge Sargsyan is accused of the
    opposite. In other words, the Armenians accuse him of making a lot of
    compromises in regard to the Karabakhi issue. The accusation comes
    not only from the oppositional field but also from the one, which
    directly or indirectly is connected to Robert Kocharyan. For example,
    the ARF Dashnaktsutyun, which became opposition, started making more
    blaming conclusions in connection with the policy of the Armenian
    government relating to both the Armenian and Turkish relations and
    the Nagorno-Karabakh issue.

    Mamedyarov's statement seems to refute this accusation and hints the
    contrary that it was Robert Kocharyan to satisfy Azerbaijan while
    Serge Sargsyan does not. In fact, the Azerbaijani Foreign Minister
    helps Serge Sargsyan to defend himself from the home accusations and
    criticism. Is not this the result of the meeting in Prague? Or this
    may be a step to cover the result of that meeting, which Azerbaijan
    makes to deprive its partner form the home repression. And, in reality
    right this government which suits the best both Azerbaijan and the
    mediator states.

    After all, let us not forget, that the American Co-Chair of the
    OSCE Minsk group Mathew Bryza stated several times, in addition
    beginning from the first meeting between Sargsyan and Aliyev that they
    have a better correlation and harmony of stances that Kocharyan and
    Aliyev. And, Azerbaijan was refuting what Bryza was saying. Armenia was
    not refuting though. Let us see whether Bryza will refute Azerbaijan
    and will reiterate that Sargsyan and Aliyev are more familiar to each
    other, than Kocharyan and Aliyev.
