Vafa Quluzade: "OSCE Minsk Group's activity has become a jest and there is no trust to this structure any more"

The United States have already voiced statements of intention to leave the OSCE Minsk Group in order not to come across Russia, which is understandable, said famous political scientist Vafa Quluzade, assessing possible exclusion of the negotiation process on Nagorno Karabakh issue from under the control of the OSCE Minsk Group.

"After Russia's open aggression against Georgia, the relations between the Kremlin and the White House have extremely cooled", said the political scientist.

According to him, the OSCE Minsk Group activity has already become a jest and there is no trust left to this structure. He said, therefore, the talks about the suspension of the OSCE Minsk Group activity are becoming more frequent.

As for the Turkish proposal of the idea to create the Caucasus platform for peace and cooperation, he said the appearance of this structure may interest the sides which are doing everything possible for the negotiation process on Nagorno Karabakh conflict to further proceed.

However, he noted that this coalition will also not give anything to Azerbaijan, like it was in the case of the OSCE Minsk Group. According to him it is just the next talking shop to promote meetings in Russia and Turkey and perhaps in Yerevan and Baku.

"I do not rule out that the visits of official Baku representatives to Yerevan and vise versa will be arranged in the framework of this project. It will be presented as a proof of serious progress in the negotiation process. However, no achievements can be expected in the issue of the return of the occupied lands and we will witness the next imitation of the negotiation process", said he.
