    ISSUE OF RESUMING MILITARY ACTION IN KARABAKH STILL TOPICAL

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The issue of renewed hostilities in the territories
    of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict remains topical, Academician
    Ara Sargsyan , member of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of
    Geopolitical Problems, told journalists today in Yerevan.

    "At present, there are two possible scenarios of the Karabakh
    conflict resolution. The first scenario is conditioned by the
    Russian-Azerbaijani cooperation, while the second one is linked to
    the Azerbaijani-UK ties," the academician stressed.

    According to Mr. Sargsyan, under the first scenario, all actions are
    dictated by the interests of the Russian Gazprom company related to
    the Nabucco project. Ara Sargsyan believes, that the agreement on
    this scenario has been achieved in the tripartite meeting of Dmitry
    Medvedev - Shimon Peres - Ilham Aliyev, recently held in Baku.

    "That meeting resulted in the following: getting support of certain
    Russian circles, including the General Staff of Russia, to resume
    hostilities in Nagorno Karabakh," Ara Sargsyan said. He justified his
    view by Russia's desire to undermine the implementation of Nabucco
    and to prevent Azerbaijan gas from participation in this project.

    According to Mr.Sargsyan, all beneficial to Gazprom is not necessarily
    to benefit of the Russian people. " The possibility of resumption
    of the war in Nagorno Karabakh is 90 per cent until Russia does not
    clearly adopt it foreign policy doctrine ," he said.

    The second the Azerbaijan-UK scenario, according to the academician,
    is conditioned by the interests of British Petroleum, oil and gas
    giant. "It was not a coincidence that on the date of signing the
    agreement on Nabucco in Ankara, the President of Azerbaijan was
    in London, where he made a statement about possibility of resuming
    the war, "Ara Sargsyan said. He also added that if under the first
    scenario the war is inevitable, in the second case we are dealing
    with blackmail.

    The Madrid principles are favorable for Armenia, Ara Sargsyan
    stressed. "In the coming years in the South Caucasus and the Middle
    East certain processes resulting in change of state borders will take
    place, the existing status quos will be violated and new ethnic states
    will be created, " Ara Sargsyan said.
