Armenian foreign ministry considers Azerbaijan is trying to frustrate process of Karabakh conflict settlement

Azerbaijan is trying to turn back the Karabakh settlement. Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian told it in his interview to the National Television of Armenia.

According to his words, in case if Ilykham Aliyev wins presidential elections in Azerbaijan, which is most likely, official Baku may try to bring to nothing all the agreements existing on the Karabakh settlement.

"In such a case the process of peaceful settlement will turn conversely. But I am sure the world community will not allow doing it," noted Vardan Oskanian. According to him, to start everything from the beginning is extremely inexpedient, and new Azerbaijan authorities must proceed with the settlement taking the agreements that already exist into consideration.
