The provocations of the minisultanate are designed to sow panic and provoke an outflow of residents of Artsakh. Whoever prepares an attack always uses the surprise factor, but does not disable the gas pipeline from Armenia. So we are observing a “different case”.
Aliyev does not take the stars out of heaven, but he is not an idiot to spoil relations with Putin in such a turbulent time. Moreover, Russia has been and is on the side of Azerbaijan in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Nothing has changed since the Baku-Turkish aggression of 2020. There should be no illusions!
There is another point here: Baku will try to sell the shelling of the positions of the Russian army in Artsakh dearly to the Western public opinion – as its “solidarity” with the Ukraine.
In relation with this, I have several questions: Where did the OSCE Minsk Group and its Co-Chairs from France and the United States go? The Ukraine and Russia were not saved from a direct conflict. Maybe at least here you can show that you know how to impose sanctions not only against the Kremlin? Otherwise, it’s all curved mirrors…
I urge representatives of the Armenian Diaspora in Europe and the United States to convey to their governments in the countries of residence our indignation that right now, at this moment, the Baku kleptocracy violates human rights in Artsakh, depriving people of the right to live in peace on the land of their ancestors. And if Paris and Washington will continue to keep silence, then let them save us all from demagoguery about human rights. Either you defend them universally, or stop talking about it.
