Heydar Jamal ‘Armenia does not intend to engage in a constructive
dialogue and uses all methods to make it clear’, Heydar Jemal said.

The chairman of the Islamic Committee of Russia, Heydar Jamal, has
commented on the reasons for non-constructive policy of Armenia that
refuses to accept the updated Madrid principles.

‘I believe that the growing tension between Azerbaijan and Armenia is
part of a larger process of political activity, which can now be seen
in most post-Soviet countries. Armenia does not intend to engage in
constructive dialogue and uses every method to make it clear. In fact,
a significant increase in tension can be seen between the countries
of Central Asia, Russia, Belarus, Georgia and Ukraine.

‘The recent provocation by Georgia’s Imedi TV about alleged attacks on
Georgia by Russia is an operation by the special services. In the end,
all the structures and foreign bodies, interested in maintaining the
tension in the South Caucasus, were exposed,’ Jamal said.

‘In my opinion, the differences between different states are leading to
a large military and political confrontation in the post-Soviet area,
which may manifest itself in local regional clashes. As for Armenia,
it is more a virtual than a real state, which is controlled from
the outside.

‘Today, Armenia is on the verge of collapse and the Yerevan government,
seeing the inevitability of complete crisis, believes that the best way
to avoid responsibility for the consequences is to provoke Azerbaijan
to war. The Armenian authorities want to try to shift the blame for
their failure onto "aggressive" Azerbaijan,’ Jamal said.

‘Yerevan must understand that this time Azerbaijan can launch military
action not in Karabakh, but carry out pinpoint strikes on strategic
military sites in Armenia and, as a result, the Karabakh Armenians
will be left without Yerevan’s support and will quickly start talks
with Baku. This time they will not be able to get what they did in
the first Karabakh war, when Azerbaijan was fighting on two fronts:
with Karabakh separatists in its area and with Armenia that had
committed external aggression against Azerbaijan,’ he said.

‘But first, official Baku should enlist the support of neighbouring
countries, do major diplomatic work with Iran and squeeze Armenia
out of Iran’s political area. Iran and Russia will not take any
drastic steps in the event of an Azerbaijani military operation to
restore its sovereignty. I think the factor of Russia and Iran is
strongly exaggerated in the Karabakh conflict, since this is not the
same situation as in the 90s or even a few years ago. Azerbaijan’s
advantages are obvious there and nobody wants to spoil its relations
with Baku by directly hampering the restoration of the sovereignty
of Azerbaijan,’ Jamal said.
