Collective Attempts Of Armenia, France To Hold Azerbaijan Back Are Futile - ANKASAM

(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 6. Armenia's strong
desire to include France in the negotiations process with
Azerbaijan is doomed to failure, trend reports, citing the Ankara Center for
Crisis and Policy Studies (ANKASAM), a think tank based in
Türkiye.
According to the author of the article, Armenian Prime Minister
Nikol Pashinyan wants France to participate in the negotiation
process with Azerbaijan because French involvement is not a
settlement, but a fuelling of conflict.
'Furthermore, Pashinyan's actions discredit the EU's respectable
stance in the quest for peace. France, on the other hand, is trying
to become the only mediating actor in the region and wants to prove
that Moscow's efforts for a peace agreement are insufficient,' the
article said.
At the same time, Pashinyan is trying to blackmail Russia,
saying that it is ineffective and that Armenia might consider
leaving the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), for
which he was severely reproached by President of Belarus Alexander
Lukashenko.
Therefore, the Armenian PM creates a chaotic situation within
the CSTO, thus counteracting pressure for violating the Brussels
and Sochi agreements and trying to drag France into the center of
mediation processes, despite the fact that it is not neutral. This
means a retreat from the quest for peace in Azerbaijani-Armenian
relations, the author pointed out.
After Azerbaijan has liberated its territories from occupation
and announced the terms of the final peace with Armenia, it became
obvious that official Baku would not negotiate with any country and
under any circumstances on any legal status of the ethnic Armenian
population.
'The current geopolitical situation gives Azerbaijan serious
advantages. In the coming years, if not decades, Azerbaijan will
continue to develop and remain an influential political force, no
matter how much Paris officials try - it will not change anything,'
the author noted.
