If Nikol Pashinyan was re-elected, consider it a question related to the future of Armenia

Since 2018, after seizing power, Pashinyan, allegedly under the name of “restoring” sovereignty, gradually began to worsen relations with Russia. This was evident from the Artsakh issue, the negotiations conducted in the OSCE Minsk Group and the statements made. This was evident from official Yerevan’s positions on the CSTO issue, from the attitude towards General Yuri Khachaturov, it was evident from Russia’s attempts to build relations with the West at the expense of Russia, it was evident from the procedures for the reception of the President of the Russian Federation and other processes.

Meanwhile, Aliyev actively developed and warmed the ties between Baku and Moscow, further aggravating the relations between Yerevan and Moscow behind the scenes.

As a result, Aliyev got “carte blanche” by attacking and occupying a significant part of Artsakh with the “support” of Turkey, Pakistan, Ukraine, Israel and other countries.

The West could not or did not want to give us any support. And Moscow was just busy trying to stop the war (October 5, 9-10, 19, November 8).

The same game took place in 2022-23, when Yerevan tried to turn to the West without a solid foundation, in 2022. On October 6, in Prague, he renounced the right to self-determination of the people of Artsakh, renounced the OSCE Minsk Group, renounced Artsakh, renounced the Russian peacekeeping mission and gave Aliyev the right to act freely against Artsakh and Artsakh Armenians. Even Erdogan could not give such a “gift” to Aliyev.

Developing relations with Moscow again, taking advantage of the deteriorating Armenian-Russian relations, Aliyev first imposed a blockade, and then completely depopulated Artsakh through a new military aggression. The West again did not help Artsakh and Armenia. And the Russian peacemakers became the silent witnesses of the forced displacement of Artsakh Armenians.

After the occupation of Artsakh, Aliyev and Pashinyan moved on to the next party, Syunik (“Zangezuri Corridor”), and the idea of ​​TRIPP took them to Washington. At the same time, taking advantage of the deteriorating Armenian-Russian relations, with its anti-Russian agendas and energy interests, the EU is in a hurry to settle in the South Caucasus.

Do you think the Republic of Armenia will benefit from joining the EU? Of course not. Azerbaijan will win again. Against the background of deteriorating Armenian-Russian relations, Aliyev is re-establishing relations with Russia, hoping to take over the functions that Armenia still has in the EAEU and CSTO (including the West’s dabro). Aliyev also hopes to take root in Armenia under the name of border delimitation, to settle some mass of Azerbaijanis in Armenia, to completely undermine the security of Armenia in the name of peace, by weakening the economy, to give great momentum to emigration, to destroy the national parties, the national church and under various pretexts. national agendas (some of the uninformed will welcome it) and so on.

Ilham Aliyev needs Nikol Pashinyan’s government like air and water to play the last anti-Russian (pro-Turkish) game at the expense of Armenia’s interests. The West does not mind, because it does not care whether it will deal with Baku or Yerevan in the South Caucasus. What matters is their interests. They think the same way in Russia.

If on June 7, CP is defeated and there is a change of government in Armenia, then both Moscow, Washington, Beijing, and Brussels can no longer ignore Armenian interests, and will begin to take seriously the role of the Armenian people.

And if Nikol Pashinyan was re-elected, consider that issues related to the future of Armenia will be discussed and resolved in Baku or Ankara. The prerequisites for this were created by the government of KP during the previous years.”
