No opportunity of positive progress can be traced in the normalization of Karabakh conflict, political expert of the Polish Institute of International Relations (Warsaw), Konrad Zasztowt told 168.am.

According to the expert, his expectations in regard to the fact that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is not a frozen one, as many experts tried to present it, came true. Moreover, in his words, the conflict will not be normalized for a long time - or there will be no progress in the normalization process - as long as Russia has priority positions due to its leverages over the conflicting countries in the conflict zone.  

“The conflict settlement isn’t beneficial for Russia and thus the conflict will not be settled. I don’t see fast solution here as long as these leverages are preserved and EU isn’t more active. I agree to the criticism addressed to the EU in this regard, according to which EU isn’t active in the Karabakh conflict zone. More initiating policy should be manifested, but here a question arises as to whether the conflicting sides will want this,” Konrad Zasztowt noted.
