Azerbaijan will fail to regain control over Nagorno-Karabakh despite its frequent threats of military action, a former French mediator in Armenian-Azerbaijani peace talks reportedly said on Friday.
"Only Armenians live in Nagorno-Karabakh and they don't want a change in their status. Therefore, Nagorno-Karabakh's return to Azerbaijan is no longer possible," Armenian media outlets quoted Jacques Faure as saying during a NATO seminar in Yerevan.
Faure, who co-headed the OSCE Minsk Group together with U.S. and Russian diplomats from 2011-2014, said the Karabakh Armenians should therefore have a chance to gain international recognition of their de facto status through a "free expression of will." "I personally hope that this will become possible," he added.
