YEREVAN. – The signals of warning found in recent statements of the
West largely refer to Azerbaijan but to Armenia as well, Armenian
military expert Artsrun Hovhannisyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am,
commenting on recent article of New York Times about settlement of
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict titled “Frozen Conflict between Azerbaijan
and Armenia Begins to Boil.”

According to Hovhannisyan, the article, the statements of OSCE co-chair
presidents and UN Secretary General were addressed to Azerbaijan with
primary aim of warning it against the outbreak of new war. However the
same article tries to flatter Azerbaijan saying “though it could easily
drive out Armenian forces, Russia could send its army to help Armenia”.

The expert thinks this flattery contains clear warning- should
hostilities recommence, Baku will have serious problems. He marked
that the West got tired of reminding Azerbaijan that its economy is
a bubble, kept afloat by Western investments.
