Analyst: The ostrich policy of the Armenian leadership is a priori  incapable of solving the country`s problems

ArmInfo.Any step by the military-political leadership of Azerbaijan towards Armenia, any manifestation of pressure fits into the logic of forcing Yerevan to  sign a final agreement with Baku. This opinion was expressed to  ArmInfo by independent analyst Saro Saroyan.

 "Such a policy was  unswervingly pursued by Azerbaijan long before the 44-day aggression  against Artsakh. And today Baku, with the external support of its  sponsors, is trying to do everything to prevent Armenia from  deviating from this line. And as the moment of signing this document  approaches, Azerbaijan is increasingly trying to deprive Armenia of  the possibility of retreat and squeeze the maximum out of the  situation, "he stressed.

The analyst considers Aliyev's intentions to get an extraterritorial  corridor to Nakhichevan through the territory of Armenia to be an  essential part of the future agreement. In this light, Baku, in his  opinion, will try to do everything in order to gain the right to vote  in control over this corridor, which for the most part will be  carried out by Russia. Similarly, Azerbaijan seeks to gain some  control over other communications linking Armenia with the outside  world.

The only response of the Armenian leadership to this policy of Baku,  according to the analyst, is to try, if possible, to avoid coercion  by the rest of the participants in this process, to waste time and  secure more favorable positions in these geopolitical processes.  Describing such a policy as an ostrich one, the analyst assesses the  very way of thinking of the authorities as vicious and a priori  incapable of solving the problems of Armenia.

Saroyan considers the main problem of such behavior of official  Yerevan to be the absence of fundamental guidelines in the direction  of defining, in fact, the foreign policy line of the Republic of  Armenia. The line that allows you to determine the political course  that allows you to protect the interests of Armenia: the state and  society. A derivative problem, according to the analyst, is the  absence in the heads of the Armenian leadership of any signs,  elements of coercion, allowing them to somehow defend their own  interests.

"These people are simply incapable of defending the interests of  Armenia. We have seen this all recent months, and we will see this in  the future. There is simply no politics without principles and  without willpower. And it is simply impossible to counteract the  calculated, coordinated strikes of the enemy through provincial  agility alone. But there is a way out, it always exists. But the  search for this way out is available only to people with knowledge,  political will and adherence to principles. Without these qualities,  his colleagues from Armenia simply cannot oppose Aliyev. Something  instead of us, of course, will be done by the centers of power but  solely in their own interests. And this is quite normal. The whole  question is whether such a state of affairs satisfies us, "the  analyst summed up.
