Attempts to change existing status quo on Karabakh led to opposite results

YEREVAN. - Attempts to change the existing status quo on Karabakh led to its further strengthening, said political analyst Sergey Minasyan.

“Talks on changes in status quo were held before the Kazan meeting [of Armenian, Azerbaijani and Russian Presidents – ed.]. Presently the main task of the Minsk Group is to find mechanisms of strengthening ceasefire regime in the frontline. It means to further strengthen status quo existing in the line of contact,” he told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

The expert stressed that threat coming from one side led to an opposite result.

“Only the Armenian side was previously speaking about necessity to ease tension in the line of contact. Presently, the mediators are claiming the same,” Minasyan added.
