MP Tigran Abrahamyan from the opposition With Honor faction does not rule out renewed Azerbaijani aggression against Armenia in the near future despite the agreement to start a process of border delimitation and demarcation.

"At the meeting held in Sochi, it was stated in statements that in the Soviet period there was a common state and there were no borders. This was meant to stress the importance of a delimitation process. However, a much more dangerous situation was created,” he wrote on Facebook on Monday.

The lawmaker noted that Azerbaijan's aggression against Armenia was perceived merely as a "border dispute".

“Moreover, the Azerbaijani president has constantly tried to present the aggression against the Republic of Armenia as an unplanned border incident. These statements go to show that regardless of whether a process of delimitation starts or the borders are unblocked, the possibility of a new aggression by Azerbaijan remains in the near future,” the MP said.

“It turns out that in terms of the international perceptions local actions on different sections of the border will be described as "border disputes", and their responsibility will equally rest with both sides,” Abrahamyan said.

According to the MP, the international community will consider the red line crossed only when a large-scale fighting takes place.

“It remains to be seen whether "restraining” Azerbaijan in such a case will rule out a new capitulation by Armenia,” he noted.
