Mediators do not have enough information on Karabakh conflict, stated confictologist Aleksandr Manasian

An article of the well-known conflictologist Professor Aleksandr Manasian appeared in the Azat Artsakh newspaper, which is published in Karabakh. The author notes in his article that while the OSCE Minsk Group on the Karabakh settlement is trying to arrange a complicated series of meetings and visits to the region, the US-Russian organization "Dortmund Conference", which was established as early as the 1970s, has been arranging trilateral meetings of experts from Armenia, Azerbaijan and Nagorny Karabakh within the limits of people's diplomacy for three years already.

In September 2003, this international organization presented its proposals concerning the Karabakh settlement to the Minsk Group, which took them into account.

Today the "Dortmund Conference" co-chairmen are Paul Saunders, a well-known American political scientist, and Vitaly Naumkin, director of the Institute for Strategic Studies.

5 trilateral meetings of experts from Armenia, Azerbaijan and Nagorny Karabakh have been already conducted within the framework of the conference. As the Karabakh political scientist states, it has become clear during the meetings that international organizations and mediators do not have enough information on the Karabakh conflict.

The Karabakh expert highly rates the role of such trilateral meetings, which give the opportunity of a free dialogue to the conflict parties.
