The presidents of Azerbaijan and Turkey have attended groundbreaking ceremonies for the construction of a new highway in the Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) territories temporarily placed under Baku's control as a result of the 44-day war, orientalist Armen Petrosyan said on Wednesday.
"In terms of propaganda, this move has at least three purposes: the project is presented to their own societies and the international community as the launch of the implementation of the "Zangezur corridor" linking Azerbaijan with Nakhichevan and Turkey, at the same time getting on the Armenian people’s nerves and playing with their emotions,” the expert wrote on Facebook.
“Now, what is our task? We should in no way be overwhelmed by the Turkic propaganda, and should assure the neighbors and the whole world that any possible unblocked transport route on the territory of Armenia will be exclusively under the sovereignty of Armenia. The issue of naming it is also a topic for discussion,” Petrosyan said.
