Caucasus (bbabo.net), - Commentators sum up yesterday's historic rendezvous in Prague with the participation of the leaders of Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkey on the sidelines of the European Political Community meeting. The current Armenian leader has never met personally with the head of the Turkish state. As bbabo.net reported, following the talks, Erdogan said that he "sincerely believes" in the normalization of relations with Armenia.
It is noteworthy that the meeting in such a warm atmosphere took place immediately after a sharp aggravation of the situation on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, in fact, the Azerbaijani Armed Forces entered the territory of Armenia with fighting, as a result of which the Armenian side suffered heavy losses, and frames with mass executions of unarmed Armenian soldiers spread around the world. In this foreign policy of the Western centers and Turkey, artificially provoked for tactical purposes, the United States, France and the European Union sharply intensified their mediation efforts, although during the 44-day war in 2020 they did not make any attempts to stop it, to provide any assistance to the attacked population of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The results of the Azerbaijani-Armenian-Turkish summit under the Euro-Atlantic roof are commented on by the Telegram channel "Comrade General".
“Let's put emphasis on calling Pashinyan to Prague. Judging by the expression on his face in the photo, even this unprincipled creature was uncomfortable.
1. Pashinyan came to the anti-Russian gathering of European leaders. This is how it was originally stated. Excuses “for the sake of peace talks” are not accepted - another time and another place could have been found for this. That is, Pashinyan spoke against Russia twice in one voyage.
2. More precisely, three times. For yesterday, the speaker of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Zakharova, said that Russia's proposals on a comprehensive peace treaty had been submitted to Armenia. These proposals, of course, were not considered in Prague.
3. The agenda at the talks was completely Azerbaijani. Armenia did not declare anything at all. Erdogan and Aliyev spoke. Pashinyan did not gurgle a word to the public. Even Aliyev’s remark that Pashinyan had nothing to say about the highway through Armenia remained without a public response.
4. It follows from the interviews of Aliyev and Erdogan that peace negotiations imply: the complete disarmament of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh - ed.); international promotion of the thesis about the Azerbaijani belonging of Artsakh; the status and rights of "Karabakh" Armenians is an internal issue of Azerbaijan. Whatever the text of the treaty, even if there is no mention of Artsakh in it, all this will be automatically implied, and Pashinyan's signature will mean agreement with this approach.
5. Erdogan's statement: "Armenia must resolve legal issues with Azerbaijan and immediately sign a peace agreement" - means that the text of the agreement is practically approved, it remains to come up with a legal shell. Moreover, Erdogan considers the opening of the land border for citizens of third countries and direct air transportation of goods between Armenia and Turkey as a bonus to the peace agreement with Azerbaijan. Such additional happiness for Armenia.
6. France (Macron) is on the side of Turkey and Azerbaijan, as is the CE (Michel).
7. Pashinyan's clumsy attempt to balance the hugs with Erdogan by meeting with the Greek president failed precisely because Pashinyan did not have any meaningful messages behind his soul.
8. Aliyev has already announced further steps - working groups work for several days, then foreign ministers meet. Erdogan blessed this process. Nobody asked Pashinyan.
Summary: the only external force capable of stopping the movement of this “train on fire” is Russia. The only inner strength is Artsakh.”
It is worth recalling that on the eve of the meeting in Prague, the family newspaper of the Armenian Prime Minister Haykakan Zhamanak (Armenian Time), the editorial office of which is headed by the “first lady” of the country Anna Hakobyan, published, citing a “reliable source”, a list of five main requirements that Azerbaijan puts before Armenia:
Dissolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh Defense Army.
Recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh as part of Azerbaijan without any autonomy (with "zero status").
Providing Azerbaijan with a "corridor" to Nakhichevan through the territory of Armenia.
Launching the process of delimitation and demarcation of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border according to the maps of 1919-1920.
Finding out the fate of Azerbaijanis who went missing during the Karabakh war of 1991-1994
