when you see here is a position 1st of all russia as a co-chair country of the oil minsk group should take all measures for security and peace in the region and for the resolution of the conflict. russia has with other amenia commitments in the security fields and i to be precise corporation in the security field that is one of the items in our agenda would you want to see russian peacekeepers for example in the golan a kind of or you see those issues could be discussed in the context of the wider resolution within the or when scroope cochairman ship president. says that you've been provoking him you've been allowing the armenian diaspora to settle in the car but you've been encouraging it he's been left with no option they have this long list of grievances it's that territory you've done nothing to try and. resolve this conflict so that is why we are where we are out there today. look you see those allegations of the armenian government resettling people from the diaspora in around allegations for 2 reasons firstly the armenian government has got nothing to do with. territorial devel

you were part of some of those peace talks for years as part of the minsk group. when you were involved where you thought that the conflict might be resolved to the satisfaction of both sides? definitely. twice, early in the 1990s and again, 2000, 2001, the dialogue was approaching what could have been a successful outcome. in a different setting, where both parties were prepared to agree to talks and discuss serious compromise. and this time they are not? no, this time they have dug in over the past two years and have stuck to more maximal positions and i think that has made it impossible to make headway in peace talks. why have those more maximalist positions emerged? popular support for them, in part. i think the leadership in both countries have always faced difficulties in convincing their people that they need to compromise at the negotiating table. azerbaijan has always said that we will get the return of all their land, including karabakh, and the population in karabakh has increasingly said that they want to be independent and to retain other lands that t
