Международный эксперт:

В настоящий момент ситуация вокруг Нагорного Карабаха весьма хрупкая. Об этом заявил АрмИнфо руководитель Программы вооруженных конфликтов и управления конфликтами при Стокгольмском институте исследования проблем мира (SIPRI) Нейл Мелвин (Neil Melvin).

Эксперт отметил, что усилия, которые предпринимала Россия в координации с Минской группой ОБСЕ, не увенчались успехом. России не удалось совершить прорыва, и четкого альтернативного процесса, который мог бы дальше повести повестку мирного урегулирования конфликта, не существует. “Это привело к тому, что международное сообщество выразило определенную обеспокоенность по поводу риска возврата насилия. А тот факт, что Азербайджан будет занимать место в Совете Безопасности ООН, придает новые черты существующей ситуации”, - отметил эксперт. Он добавил, что Россия беспокоилась по поводу подобного развития, поскольку в целом препятствовала вовлечению ООН в конфликты на постсоветском пространстве, не желая рисковать способностью решать эти конфликты в соответствии со своими интересами.

“На данный момент, маловероятно, чтобы односторонняя инициатива Азербайджана в ООН по Карабаху привела к прорыву. К тому же, потенциально это может еще больше дестабилизировать ситуацию. В тоже время, более широкая вовлеченность  незаинтересованной третьей стороны, такой какой является ООН, может привнести некоторую новую динамику в зашедшие в тупик мирные переговоры”, - отметил Мелвин.

Trump says Ukraine should give up land for peace as preparations start for US-Russia summit

U.S. President  Donald Trump said that the Donbas region in the east of Ukraine should be “cut up,” leaving most of it in Russian hands, to end a  war that has dragged on for nearly four years. Trump has edged back in the direction of pressing Ukraine to give up on retaking land it has lost to Russia, in exchange for an end to the war. Following a phone call last week, the Russian and US leaders Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump announced they would meet in Budapest for talks on resolving the war in Ukraine, triggered by Moscow's all-out offensive in February 2022. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and US counterpart Marco Rubio spoke on Monday 20 October to discuss preparations for the summit, and are expected to meet in person to finalise details. However, the Kremlin stated on Tuesday 21 October that there was "no precise time frame" for the summit even though Trump stated that the meeting with Putin could take place within two weeks.
