Media: Armenia should stop political manipulation if it is interested in signing peace treaty with Azerbaijan

If Armenia is interested in signing a peace treaty on the basis of the mutual recognition of each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity, then Yerevan should stop political manipulation, says an article posted on EU Reporter.

"The normalization of relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan holds significant economic benefits for the entire region. If Armenia is interested in signing a peace treaty on the basis of the mutual recognition of each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity, then Yerevan should stop political manipulation. Conflict resolution will create new opportunities for regional economic integration and increased connectivity,” the article reads.

EU Reporter notes that revanchist groups in Armenia still believe that the conflict is not over, and Armenia must patronage regime across the territories under the control of the separatists. 

"By doing that, they aim building the ‘grey-zone’ which is unacceptable for Azerbaijan. This tactic includes support of the separatist regime in Karabakh politically, economically and militarily, and at the same time, continue talks with Azerbaijan without significant result,” the article says. 

It further notes that such tactic poses the greatest challenge to the peace talks and cannot prevent future conflict escalation in the region.
