Former MP Artem Tsarukyan accused the incumbent Armenian authorities of “utter failure” in national security, foreign policy and defense.

Speaking at a debate on Tuesday, he underscored the Turkish-Azerbaijani duo seeks to gain control not only over all of Artsakh, but also internationally recognized territories of Armenia.

“It testifies to the fact that the conflict is not only about Artsakh,” the ex-deputy said.

He stressed Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev eyes a land corridor to Nakhichevan passing through Armenia's Syunik Province through the blockade of the Lachin Corridor.

“It would close the last chapter of Armenia’s history,” he claimed.

Tsarukyan states as far as Armenian-Russian relations are deteriorating, Aliyev's rhetoric is getting tougher and he is putting forward new demands.

"We have to fight for ourselves, and the allies must help us. There are a lot of issues concerning Russia and France that I do not understand. But the lack of information, of course, does not allow for a proper assessment of the state of affairs," he said.
