In spite of statements by the OSCE Minsk Group mediators and other
interested structures, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliev continues
his revelations with childish zest. "The power of the Azerbaijani
army and high rates of economic growth leave no doubts about the
settlement of the Karabakh conflict to the benefit of Azerbaijan,"
he said during celebrations of Novrooz.
Counting huge sums oil-dollars Aliev seems to have improved his skills
in mathematics. According to his calculations, Azerbaijan’s economy
is at present 7 times stronger than that of Armenia, but 2 or three
years are still necessary for Azerbaijan to have absolute advantage
of Armenia.
Without being deeply interested in Aliev’s plots, one thing we can
say: it’s evident that Aliev wishes war and is trying to persuade
himself that Azerbaijan can afford it.
