Night Watch: BAKU - According to the press service of the Defense
Ministry of Azerbaijan, Armenian military units, located near the
occupied village of Kuropatklino in Khojavend region, subjected
positions of Azerbaijan armed forces on the opposite side to
machine-gun fire and that they were silenced by counter-fire.
This is why the Caucasus is more of a flashpoint than even the
Balkans. Azerbaijan has excellent relations with Iran and could
easily receive military support from Iran, which could use the next
war between the two to have more control over an area that not only
borders Iran but also the oil rich Caspian.
Though Armenia does have working relations with Iran they are not as
substantial as the military agreements Azerbaijan has signed with
Tehran. Yerevan still has hostile and mutually suspicious relations
concerning Ankara so their only hope of international assistance is
most likely Moscow-Berlin.
Perhaps the importance of this region will dawn on Washington.
