Risk of resumption of hostilities between Armenia and Azerbaijan has  increased significantly - expert

ArmInfo. The risk of resumption of hostilities between Armenia and Azerbaijan has  increased significantly. Alternative Projects Group expert Vahe Hovhannisyan, shares a similar point of view.

According to his article, the current process will lead to war,  because the government of RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan made  gross mistakes in the content of the negotiations, as a result of  which Azerbaijan now has huge expectations regarding Artsakh and 8  enclaves on the territory of Armenia. The situation, according to the  expert, is extremely tense, and it is important to correctly present  reality and move forward.

Hovhannisyan believes that the current government of Armenia depends  on the patience of Aliyev, who needs some time to make final  adjustments and safety nets. "All the statements of the West, Russia,  Turkey and Azerbaijan indicate  this. - this is a  real factor, a new unit of measurement in which we find ourselves due  to our mistakes. How long is it: a month, two months... that's not  the problem. Our task is to get out of this block of calculations.  The logic of the blockade, the behavior of the mediators, our  dynamically deteriorating relations with Russia prove that this  process is leading to war. By and large, the negotiations have  already ended because of their incorrect content. This is our  problem. Today we have approximately the situation of the summer of  2020. Nikol understands this very well, he is aware that the  interruption of negotiations is immediately a war>, the expert  emphasized.

In fact, he continued, the current authorities of Armenia are engaged  in two things - preparation for a new war and depatriation. "The  point is not that the authorities want war or new victims, of course,  this is not so. But the steps taken by them led to a serious dead  end. Deterioration of the situation with Russia is an extremely  adventurous course. Pashinyan has some personal chances, but it will  turn into a disaster for the state," Vahe Hovhannisyan said.
