ArmInfo. Azerbaijan will exert pressure on Armenia from Nakhichevan to force Armenia’s authorities into further concessions, Tigran Abrahamyan, a member of the opposition parliamentary faction With Honor, said.
Yesterday’s ceasefire violation in the western section of the border suggests that thee interregional highway is a target as well.
In this context, the opposition MP notes that the Azerbaijani troops advanced in this direction in July 2010, three months after the “well-known events” (velvet revolution).
“That advance not posed a great threat not only to the neighboring settlements but also to the Yerevan- Yeraskh-Goris highway,” Mr Abrahamyan said.
“Azerbaijan is most likely to exert pressure on Armenia from Nakhichevan at the current stage to ensure Azerbaijan’s advantage in unblocking the regional transport links and force Armenia’s authorities into further concessions,” the MP said.
