Military actions can resume between Armenia and Azerbaijan "in the
case of the presence of two factors," which were named today by
military psychologist Davit Jamalyan.
"One of the factors [is] if our state government for whatever reason
drastically weakens and our country becomes vulnerable to foreign
aggression. The second reason is geopolitical, if resuming the
war is advantageous for the so-called power centres of the world,"
Jamalyan stated.
Commenting on Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev's statements that
the war may resume if no progress is made in negotiations wth Serzh
Sargsyan, the psychologist stated the aim of the bellicose statements
is to bring about a mess on Armenia's population, "which will compel
the leadership to make concessions in the negotiation process."
According to the psychologist, it is difficult to frighten Sargsyan
with such statements. "Alieyev's statements aim to frighten the
Armenian public," Jamanlyan stated.
"We must be prepared that Azerbaijan will decide to settle the
issue sooner or later through military action," Jamalyan emphasized,
stating that Azerbaijan has been preparing for that for years already.
Besides, he stated, the time passed long ago, when war began with
making announcements. "If one of the parties really decides to wage
a war, he wouldn't announce it in advance."
One shouldn't underestimate one's rival, believes Jamalyan, while
stating the opinion held by numerous analysts, which is that
"Azerbaijan is not prepared for war."
