 “The meeting of Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents is of great importance. I hope that the presidents will agree to review the proposals of OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs,” Sabine Freizer, Europe Programme Director of the International Crisis Group told Azeri Press Agency. She said that the situation around the negotiations on Nagorno Karabakh conflict is too sensitive because of presidential elections in both countries.
”Presidential elections have already been held in Armenia, this process was accompanied by hard developments, rallies and discontents. Elections will be held in Azerbaijan. I think the situation is sensitive, as both countries are engaged in the elections,” she said.
Assessing the change of the government in Armenia, Sabine Freizer expressed her hope that this factor will have a positive influence on the process of negotiations.
“New president – means new spirit, new enthusiasm. I hope Serzh Sargsyan will have a constructive position and this factor will give an impetus to the process of negotiations,” she said.
