"If the news about war are coming from Baku, then they're empty words,
but if they're being disseminated from inside [Armenia], then it's
something unhealthy," said Armenian Academy of Political Research NGO
President Alexander Manasyan at a press conference today when asked
whether he considered the recommencement of war possible.
Manasyan mentioned that Azerbaijan cannot initiate a war unless it
gets permission from the world's superpowers. And even if it does so,
according to Manasyan, there will be a repetition of what has already
happened before - Azerbaijan will be defeated.
In turn, political analyst Stepan Grigoryan, also present at the
conference, said that there has always been a likelihood of war,
but that probability is periodically growing.
As for Azerbaijan's bellicose statements, according to Stepanyan,
they are addressed not to Armenia, but to Turkey and aim at hinting
at Ankara that it must not open the border with Armenia.
