Armenia –

The steps of the Armenian authorities are bringing the war even closer. Tigran Abrahamyan, an MP from the opposition "With Honor" Faction in the National Assembly of Armenia and a security expert, stated about this during a discussion Tuesday.

According to him, what the Armenian authorities are talking about, and what Azerbaijan is harmoniously presenting, contains more threats of war rather than the possibility of peace.

Abrahamyan expressed a conviction that in reality there is a wrong opinion that there is a peace agenda for Armenia, and in the public perception there is an impression that there are forces that are for and against peace.

He reminded that after the proclamation of the "era of peace" the sovereign territory of Armenia was subjected to Azerbaijani military aggression, and a part was occupied. According to him, Azerbaijan demands more and will demand more.

Abrahamyan stressed that the Armenian authorities are now trying to fit into the agenda proposed by Azerbaijan and Turkey. He considered the absence of visits of Armenia’s high-ranking officials to Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) a targeted policy of alienation of Artsakh, so that in the future there would be the lowest possible level of resistance in Armenia to solve their issues.

Tigran Abrahamyan noted that Artsakh is in serious danger, whereas Armenia’s authorities do not seek to eliminate it, or at least reduce the risks.
