Expert: Armenia needs to give up illusions about Aliyev`s pacifism

Expert: Armenia needs to give up illusions about Aliyev`s pacifism

ArmInfo.Armenia needs to say goodbye to illusions and hopes for Azerbaijan's aspirations for peace. Member of the National Assembly of Armenia of the 7th   convocation, expert in Azerbaijani studies Tatevik Hayrapetyan,   expressed a similar opinion to ArmInfo.

"Azerbaijan did not strive for peace from the very beginning,  Azerbaijan does not strive for peace now, Azerbaijan will not strive  for peace in the future. The current demands of the Azerbaijani  leadership in relation to Armenia can be characterized as follows:"  we want to take everything possible. " Accordingly, we, in turn, must  clearly record this in our own public opinion, and must form the  policy of the state, taking into account this reality, "she stressed.

The parliamentarian considers all the latest Azerbaijani inclinations  to the borders of Armenia, in particular, the attack on the villages  of Gegharkunik and on the positions of the Armenian army, as part of  the policy towards strengthening Azerbaijan's victory in the 44-day  war. According to her estimates, Aliyev is doing everything possible  in this regard, taking advantage of the weakness of Armenia.  According to Hayrapetyan, the essence of Aliyev's demands and  appetites is the acquisition of the territories of Armenia, without  which the further existence of the Armenian state will acquire a  formal character.

According to Hayrapetyan, Aliyev quite clearly  voiced his own goals  and strategy towards Armenia just the other day, saying that  Azerbaijan is not going to leave the territory of Armenia. According  to her, Baku does not at all consider the current situation on the  border as a border dispute, and Aliyev openly declares that "the  Azerbaijanis have returned to "their" lands." At the same time,  Aliyev is trying to occupy the territory of Armenia for the use of  the Nakhichevan corridor and, of course, to finally close the issue  of determining the status of Artsakh.

According to Hayrapetyan's estimates,aAll this Aliyev's policy with  clear elements of coercion, is generally supported by Ankara. And,  besides the fact that it does not contain elements of a peaceful  settlement of the problems with Armenia, it also pursues as its goal  the destruction of the Armenian statehood. The MP is convinced that  exactly the destruction of Armenia as a state means peace for Baku.

"The path to peace cannot lie through murder and expropriation of  pieces of territory from a neighboring state. Aliyev's appetites are  already reaching Yerevan, and if we allow him, he does not hesitate  at all in satisfying them. We cannot allow this, and for this we have  all the necessary conditions, including international law. There are  internationally recognized borders, Armenia is a member of  international organizations, there is a corresponding toolkit that  must be applied. In any case, the unleashing of a full- scale war by  Azerbaijan against Armenia in the territories of our country is not  expected. Today Baku does not have the appropriate opportunities for  this. First of all, political, "the parliamentarian summed up."
