Alexei Vlasov, head of expert group at information-analytical center of the Lomonosov Moscow State University says, given in the South Caucasus and ongoing negotiations, we should not perceive the words of Serzh Sargsyan as final and irrevocable.
The expert was commenting on Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan’s speech at the Chattam House.
“Statements made by politicians should not be regarded as ultimate truth especially given situation the Armenian leadership faces (both in terms of internal processes and foreign trends). I read that the Armenian President's statements are "final nail" in the processes of conflict resolution in South Caucasus, the Armenian-Turkish rapprochement, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, but I remain an optimist and I think that everything may still be change for an unlimited number of times,” the expert said.
“The Armenian leadership has repeatedly sounded ambiguous phrases and words, but not everything depends on Yerevan. Much depends on what impact international mediators will have on settlement of conflicts in South Caucasus, including Moscow, Washington, Brussels. I stress again what Armenian President uttered publicly is a final opinion,” the Russian expert said.
