Azerbaijan could plan full-scale war against Armenia

Azerbaijan could plan full-scale war against Armenia

ArmInfo.A possible reason for Azerbaijan avoiding both the border demarcation options start of  military operations in some parts of the border, with the prospect of turning the military escalation into a full-scale war against the Republic of Armenia. This intention can be noticed in all statements and actions from official Baku, Armenia's Premier Nikol Pashinyan stated at a Cabinet meeting on February 15. 

"It is the policy of the Government of the Republic of Armenia to do  everything possible to prevent such developments by engaging in  active negotiations, while at the same time standing firmly in the  positions of protection of all legitimate interests of the Republic  of Armenia. Those legitimate interests are the protection of  Armenia's territorial integrity and sovereignty, and I cannot help  but notice that a number of statements from official Baku in recent  days about the legislative framework of Armenia are a violation of  our country's sovereignty and interference in our country's internal  affairs. Attempts to interpret that there is any provision preventing  the signing of the peace treaty in the legislation of the Republic of  Armenia have nothing to do with reality. As I said, during the  negotiations of the peace treaty, Armenia and Azerbaijan managed to  agree on a number of articles, and one of them is that the parties  cannot refer to their legislation with the aim to refuse to fulfill  any provision of the peace treaty. Therefore, there is no provision  in the legislation of the Republic of Armenia that prevents the  implementation of the peace treaty, and this is not only a political  but also an expert assessment, the legal nuances of which I do not  see the need to delve into at least at this moment.

"Azerbaijan continues threatening rhetoric also in connection with  the reforms of our army and the acquisition of weapons and equipment  by the Republic of Armenia. But as I said on January 28 of this year,  on the occasion of Army Day, having a strong and combat-ready army is  the legitimate right of every country. No one can deny this. The  Republic of Armenia recognizes the territorial integrity of all  neighboring countries and has no goals outside its own territory.  This, by the way, is our long-term strategy, because we believe that  legitimacy is the most important component to ensure Armenia's  security.  The Republic of Armenia has only legitimate goals in the  field of defense, namely the defense of its internationally  recognized territories. No country can ever accuse any other country  of having such a goal.

In conclusion, I want to emphasize again our commitment to the peace  agenda and reaffirm our readiness to go to solutions within the  framework of the agreed principles, that is, our readiness to sign a  peace treaty, carry out demarcation and demarcation. In addition to  the above, I must also emphasize our willingness to open regional  communications based on the principle of sovereignty, jurisdiction,  equality and reciprocity of countries, which is expressed in the  "Crossroads of Peace" project. I am sure that the implementation of  this project will give a new impetus to the economic development of  all countries in our region," Armenia's premier said.
