In this situation, when Azerbaijan continues the blockade of Nagorno-Karabakh despite the decision of the international court, the EU must strengthen the pressure on Azerbaijan. Anders Fogh Rasmussen, the founding chairman of Rasmussen Global international political consultancy organization and former Secretary General of NATO, stated this to reporters in Armenia on Tuesday

The EU has reached an agreement with Azerbaijan in the field of energy, and this can be used as a critical platform for discussing the issue, Rasmussen said.

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev may be as much an autocrat as Russian President Vladimir Putin, Rasmussen added, but the latter does not believe that Aliyev would like to find himself in the same situation as President Putin and become an “international aggressor.”

And that is why, Rasmussen, said he once again calls on Aliyev to stop the blockade of Nagorno-Karabakh.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
