ArmInfo. Nikol Pashinyan is currently doing everything possible to deprive Ankara and Baku of the opportunity to reproach him in proposing any demands. Against this background, unconditionally accepting for implementation all the requirements set before him. Independent analyst Saro Saroyan expressed this opinion to ArmInfo.
"Analyzing the content of his last interview last year, one can come to just such a conclusion. It becomes clear that the real, main addressees of Pashinyan's messages are not the Armenian society, but Turkey and Azerbaijan. And it immediately found its confirmation in the form of further statements from Ankara on readiness for certain joint processes, which are expected with Yerevan," he said.
During a final interview at the end of 2021, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, in particular, stated that the territory of the former Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region was not considered as an exclusively Armenian territorial union at any stage of the negotiations. According to the prime minister, it was recorded in the negotiations that the Azerbaijani population also lived in Nagorno-Karabakh, and the protection of their interests was also on the agenda of the negotiations.
According to Saroyan, the matter concerns the Turkish-Azerbaijani conditions, on which some processes will have to find their implementation, in particular, concerning the unblocking of regional communications and delimitation - demarcation of borders. According to the analyst, with his statements, the Armenian prime minister seeks to demonstrate to external forces interested in the process his readiness as well as the readiness of his team to rigorously implement these processes.
Saroyan connects these processes and the course of their implementation not only with the bilateral agreements between Yerevan and Ankara, but also with the agreements reached within the framework of the 3 + 2 format. Here, Pashinyan also demonstrates his readiness to continue the implementation of agreements that are actually unknown to the Armenian society. And implement them by fulfilling the preconditions set before Armenia, which are also unknown to the Armenian people.
"We do not know where all this will lead Armenia in the future. But taking into account the current situation in our country, it can be assumed that all this directly affects the vital interests of Armenia, interests underlying the Armenian statehood and identity itself. As a result of the meetings in the framework of the 3 + 2 format, the division of roles in this process between Moscow and Ankara is clearly visible, which automatically presupposes the achievement of agreement between them in the joint solution of specific tasks, however we cannot specify exactly what tasks, "he summed up
