evidence: Another EU mistake has been not to give equal priority to the territorial claims of both countries. Due to the complicated pattern of the Soviet-time border delimitation, both Azerbaijan and Armenia have claims to their exclaves within the other’s territory, and, although it is an issue that has been discussed in depth during the meetings, the emphasis has been placed on the Armenian case, leaving the claims in the background. Armenia claims the territory of Artsvashen, while Azerbaijan claims Karki, Yukhari Askipara, Barkhudarly and Sofulu. The territories claimed by Azerbaijan are controlled by Yerevan, the opposite being the case with Artsvashen. The EU should have given the same order of priority to all claims, studying, case by case, the most convenient way to solve the situation.
