The issue of peacekeeping forces is among the unsettled issues on the resolution of the Karabakh conflict, said chairman of the center of political innovations and technologies Mubaris Ahmedoglu at a press conference today.
He noted that several proposed variants with peacekeepers of Russia or Turkey are not accepted by any of the parties. "I believe that servicemen from Azerbaijan and Armenia, prepared specially for the purpose, cal play a role of peacekeeping forces. Currently, both countries have peacekeeping forces, which take part in the due operations in different countries of the world.
Peacekeeping forces pass a special psychological training for communicating with local population, tolerance towards people, negatively treating them and others. In this sense Europe should start to think over starting to prepare Azerbaijani and Armenian peacekeepers for joint operations for them to be able to coordinate their actions and learn to communicate with each others", said the political scientist.
At the same time, he noted that on the whole the phylosophy of peacekeeping has changed in the world and old methods are preserved only in Russia, whose mediation in the peacekeeping operation is not positive, as in the countries, where Russia was a peacekeeper, the conflict was not settled in favor of the territorial integrity. "Russian peacekeepers are needed in South Ossetia and Abkhazia only for separating these lands from Georgia. Russian peacekeepers are deployed in Transdniestria and it seems that this conflict will not be settled on the basis of the territorial integrity of Moldova", said Ahmedoglu.
