What will Armenia ‘gain’ at the end of peace processes with Azerbaijan?
News.am
Zhoghovurd daily of the Republic of Armenia wrote: Azerbaijan won overwhelmingly from the Pashinyan-Trump-Aliyev trilateral negotiations held in Washington on August 8 at the White House, where there can be no second opinion. How? Let’s explain.
Azerbaijan received:
- A corridor that Armenia provided to it through the US.
- The dissolution of the OSCE Minsk Group, which closed the page on the return of the Armenians of Artsakh.
- Azerbaijan achieved the fact that the European monitors will leave Armenia.
- Section 907 [of the US Freedom Support Act that bans any kind of direct US aid to the Azerbaijani government] was canceled.
- Azerbaijan does not have a clear direction, as it recognizes the territorial integrity of the RA on a map.
- All international lawsuits [by Armenia] against Azerbaijan will be withdrawn.
Thus, in exchange for all the concessions, Armenia receives nothing: only a document titled “peace” and half-promises.
We consider it necessary to inform Armenia’s citizens also thst the treaty will be signed by Azerbaijan only when Armenia changes its fundamental law, the Constitution.
Does Armenia need such a “Peace Treaty” which cedes a corridor, divides the country, handing over parts of the enclaves to Azerbaijan, specific territories from the Tavush, Ararat, Vayots Dzor Provinces of Armenia, loses the European monitors, the Russian military base, is prohibited from purchasing weapons, and is prohibited from self-defense?
Is this peace or capitulation?
