Azeri military analyst Uzeir Japarov thinks that the adoption of a new
military doctrine by the Azeri Parliament will depend on the prospects
of deploying foreign peacekeepers in the Karabakh conflict zone. He
says that most probably Russian peacekeepers will be deployed there,
while Turkish soldiers will be stationed in the Nakhchevan Autonomous
Republic of Azerbaijan.
On April 27 Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu stated that
"Nakhchevan's security is our security". He also said that Nakhchevan
is under threat from Armenia and will therefore be taken under
Turkish protection.
Azeri officials explained that if there is military and strategic
cooperation between Armenia and Russia there could equally be such
cooperation between Azerbaijan and Turkey.
