ArmInfo. The Azerbaijani-Armenian conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh is becoming more serious and gets out of control, while both sides are frustrated with Western decisions to end the bloodshed. Iranian state news agency IRNA writes about it.
Now almost a month has passed since the conflict between the two neighboring countries continues, and neither side seems to be seeking to negotiate a ceasefire. Countries in the region are concerned that the conflict could quickly spread throughout the region, creating an adverse humanitarian crisis.
Western governments created the Minsk Group in 1992 to help resolve a long-standing dispute between Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh. The question is why the West has failed to end this conflict despite some gestures of goodwill.
Some analysts believe the West lacks the necessary determination to help find a solution to the conflict and has failed to take steps to draw a roadmap for sustainable peace in the Caucasus.
They argue that the conflict between Baku and Yerevan gives the Western powers a certain political chance to expand their presence and influence in the region.
It should be noted that according to unconfirmed reports, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps is sending special forces and military equipment to the Mazandaran and Gilan regions to the border with Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as with Nakhichevan, to protect national security and from foreign presence along the north-western borders of the country.
