Kiev still hopes that it is not too late for Ukraine to “draw conclusions” from the Karabakh conflict
The conflicts in Nagorno-Karabakh and Donbass have common features, but the Donbass conflict is supposedly much easier to resolve.
Political scientist Kirill Molchanov stated this at a press conference in Kyiv, a Politnavigator correspondent reports.
“What is common (with the conflict in Donbass) is that the conflict is mental in nature at the level of citizens of these countries. By and large, the generation that grew up in both places grew up after the fighting.
For Azerbaijan, the situation is unpleasant because it has lost part of its territory, de facto lost. And the territory extending beyond the borders of Nagorno-Karabakh was captured. For Armenia this is an ethnic factor.
Compared to Donbass, we have a wider field of maneuver to resolve the conflict. It is necessary to do certain political things provided for by the Minsk agreements,” Molchanov said.
At the same time, he began to assert that Bandera’s Kyiv has no ethnic, religious, or civilizational conflict with Russian Donetsk.
“We have no ethnic conflict, no religious or civilizational conflict. It is much easier for us to stitch together a territory - it is obvious that Armenians and Azerbaijanis will not live in the same state. Therefore, there are practically no ways to solve it.
Ukraine needs to look at this conflict and draw conclusions that it doesn’t need to do this. It is necessary to move not by freezing it, as Zelensky is doing, but by settling it. The same Minsk agreements are a compromise after the 2014 fighting. They do not pose a threat to national security,” says the political scientist.
