The lack of definitive steps to unlock the Lachin corridor may indicate that someone in the Armenian government needs a long-term blockade of Nagorno-Karabakh, Tigran Kocharyan, a media expert and co-founder of the Analytical Center for Strategic Studies and Initiatives (ACSSI), said in an interview on February 8 Red Spring AI.
Despite the serious weakening of Armenia, it still has an arsenal that can be used to unlock the Lachin corridor, the expert said. However, even 20% of all possible military, politico-military and diplomatic methods are not used, he noted.
“It seems that there are people in the leadership of Armenia who are interested in a long-term blockade of Artsakh, because this can lead to the fact that when the blockade is temporarily lifted, a stream of people will leave Artsakh who do not want to be there anymore. in this state”.– concluded Kocharyan.
He drew attention to the fact that the loss of the Armenian population in Nagorno-Karabakh will inevitably lead to the departure of the Russian peacekeepers, after which both the Russian military base and the border guards of Armenia will be required to withdraw. .
“And the Russia factor will be nullified here. This is what the West is trying to achieve. By the way, in 2018, during his visit to Pashinyan, this plan was presented by Assistant to the President of the United States for Homeland Security John Bolton.the expert recalled.
This plan includes rejecting the Armenians of their historical stereotypes, Russia’s withdrawal from the region, as well as blocking routes under Iran’s nose, Kocharyan explained.
“The terror of the Armenian population of Artsakh with the aim of leaving their historical territories, and the recognition of Artsakh as Azerbaijani territory, which Pashinyan practically reached in Prague during a meeting with Aliyev. This is exactly what the West is heading for, these are the goals set for its puppets in the Armenian government.”the expert concluded.
