International players, each in their own way and cleverness, are trying to exonerate themselves in advance from the Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) tragedy. Tigran Abrahamyan, secretary of the opposition "With Honor" Faction of the National Assembly of Armenia and a security expert, wrote about this on Facebook. He added as follows:

"The collective West is showing that it is making great efforts to resolve the Artsakh issue, but in fact it is ensuring a peaceful Azerization for Artsakh. The Russians were saying that we were offering an Armenian Artsakh, but Armenia’s authorities are handing [it] over at any cost.

"[The fact] that the majority of the [Armenian] public has no doubt that Armenia’s authorities serve Turkish agendas, but international players must realize that this policy of theirs will lead to the regional end of some of them.

"If they want to convince the RF [(Russian Federation)] that it is not working for them simply because Armenia’s authorities do not want [it], then it is obvious that the RF is not guided only by the wishes of specific countries in the regions of its influence.

"Finally, Russian soldiers are in Artsakh, and not only is the Russian mediation mission being buried before their eyes, but the way is being paved for the process of pushing the RF out of the region.

"I am still not talking about the behavior of Azerbaijanis to devalue, discredit and ridicule Russia.

"And no matter how much the Ukrainian front is a priority for the Russians, it needs to be realized that there are things that will be too late later because the train is already moving."
