Hookwork of Armenia in the Karabakh conflict
As is known, the UN adopted 4 resolutions on the Karabakh conflict, providing for the immediate withdrawal of the Armenian armed forces from the entire territory of Azerbaijan. The third decade has passed, but Armenia still has not fulfilled the decisions of these resolutions, which, by the way, are mandatory. Armenia explains its refusal to withdraw troops by the fact that Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) is an independent entity that has the status of a republic, though not recognized by anyone, including Armenia itself, and the troops stationed there have nothing to do with Armenia, and therefore let Azerbaijan lead negotiations with Nagorno-Karabakh. That is, the UN resolutions do not concern Armenia in any way. I want to say that in Azerbaijan there is an old popular definition of everything that cannot be explained logically - “this is in Armenian”.
Such an approach to the problem of Karabakh created by Armenia is a real chicanery, from which she herself suffered. And that's why. The fact is that after the largest military provocation in recent years by Armenia in July this year, launched at the go-ahead from Moscow in order to cut off the gas pipeline supplying gas from Baku to Turkey, which is of great economic importance for both Azerbaijan and Turkey , the leadership of Azerbaijan and Turkey sharply condemned Armenia. Moreover, they warned about the danger of such provocations in the future. Armenia, as always, ignored this warning, relying on a strategic alliance with Russia. It should be noted that Azerbaijan and Turkey are strategic partners. With the last military sortie of Armenia on September 27, Azerbaijan decided to put an end to this practice and launched a large-scale counteroffensive to liberate Karabakh, captured by Armenia, which was unexpected for the latter.
Suffering significant losses, Armenia began to accuse Turkey of direct participation on the side of Azerbaijan. Erdogan denied this accusation, but said that he fully supports fraternal Azerbaijan in its intention to restore its territorial integrity. Here it is necessary to emphasize an important detail that Azerbaijan is fighting not with Armenia, but with Artsakh, and, given that Armenia renounces its direct participation in this conflict, judging by its refusal to comply with UN resolutions, it is not entirely clear why it considers that Azerbaijan is fighting against Armenia. If we take a scrupulous approach to this situation, then accusing Yerevan of Turkey that, by supplying weapons to Azerbaijan, is a third party that does not have the right to intervene in the Karabakh conflict, is not appropriate, because in this case Armenia is also a third party, not only transferring weapons Artsakh, but also sending military personnel. Where is the logic?! In Armenian, it turns out that Armenia, as a third party, gives itself the right to help Artsakh, while Turkey is deprived of such a right to help Azerbaijan.
As a result, I want to note that chicanery reveals the moral inferiority of any business where it takes place.
