Evgenia Voyko, an expert of the Russian Center of Political
Conjuncture, assures that Azerbaijan has no political and economic
resources to launch military activities.
In an interview with ArmInfo the expert said Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliyev’s bellicose statements should be seen in the context of
the nervous breakdown of the Azerbaijani authorities brought about
by the serious change of the force proportion in the South Caucasus.
As she said, in fear of the dissolution of the so-called pan-Turkish
non-official alliance, Azerbaijan, naturally, expressed its negative
disposition over the Armenian-Turkish normalization.
According to Voyko, Turkey’s abovementioned policy is seen by
Azerbaijan as a serious concession and it expresses its concerns
not only to Turkey but the US as well. We can surely state that
Azerbaijan has neither political nor economic resources to launch
military activities.
The expert said Azerbaijan should take into consideration that
the Armenians not only do not yield in the military potential and
fighting spirit but also highly exceed those of Azerbaijan. It’s
highly significant that Armenia can expect the CSTO support.
In case the war resumes, Azerbaijan will hit a heavy blow to its status
as a state with energy sources. They should realize that Armenia will
recognize Nagorno-Karabakh independence once the military activities
resume.
