The unified security system of Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) is more than ready to protect the security of the Armenian people in every sector of our homeland. This is what Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan stated during a joint session of the Security Councils of Armenia and Artsakh in Yerevan.
“The use of force won’t go unanswered, and there will always be a more than adequate response to use of force at the levels of the military and politics.
President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev also understands this, and, in essence, he has put himself in a deadlock. For over 15 years, he has been promising his people to solve the Karabakh issue through the military and has spent billions of dollars for that, and very often this leaves the impression of money laundering. Now he is having trouble explaining to his people why the reality is the way it is. He understands that his potential venture will lead to severe destruction for not only Azerbaijan, but also his anti-national authorities. To distract people’s attention and in order to get out of this deadlock, he makes other statements in an attempt to compensate the failures of the past with new and more absurd promises for the future.
Recently, guided by the special services of Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan has created a so-called “Western Azerbaijan” initiative, referring to the Republic of Armenia. With this, Azerbaijan’s regional policy is becoming more complete and is highlighting Azerbaijan’s ambitions to destabilize the whole region. However, in this sense, I would like to emphasize that when we Armenians talk about stability in the Karabakh conflict zone and security, we are talking about the security and stability of the whole region, and in this regard, Armenia is becoming the guarantor of security in not only the Karabakh conflict zone, but also the whole region, especially now when our societies are fighting against a global challenge, that is, the novel coronavirus pandemic, and we need to make calls to refrain from propagandizing hostility.
Whether we want it or not, we are neighbors historically and geographically, and we need to understand the simple truth that our peoples have equal rights, and understanding this will be of great help to prepare the peoples for peace and lay reliable foundations for long-term and sustainable development of the region.”
