Only the UN has the right to speak of an "aggressor state", rather
than the politicians in Baku who did not find anything better than
to complain about the whole world.
No matter what the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs and the interested
parties say about settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, we must
admit that the process is frozen, if not permanently, then at least
for the following five years. The point is not the willingness or
unwillingness to regulate the conflict, i.e. determine the status of
Nagorno-Karabakh, but the growing uncertainty of Baku. No statements
calculated for the Azerbaijani or the Armenian audience produced the
effect they were intended to.

The "boogeyman stories" circulated in the Azeri media about the power
and determination of the Azerbaijani army remained "unapprehended"
by the Armenian side. Celebrating this year the 18th anniversary of
liberation of Shoushi, Armenian people once again reminded Baku about
the old truth: war is a matter of skill and not quantity. And skill
is exactly what the Azerbaijani army lacks. You may buy the most
modern weapons, call up all the fighting population of the country,
but still lose, because it is necessary to learn to properly shoot
even from a gun and go into the battle with confidence that you are
defending for your homeland. Azerbaijan has neither the first nor the
second. But when the remaining sober heads in the neighboring republic
say that the key factor of the Azerbaijani army defeat was that the
army fought a war of aggression, they are declared to be enemies and
traitors. In the second Karabakh war, if it ever starts, Azerbaijan
will not be able to attract any mercenaries: Chechen commanders are
busy with their own survival, the notion of "Islamic solidarity" is not
applied for the neighboring republic, which, by the way, has aroused
the complaint of Baku politicians. Complaints are mainly directed to
the member-states of Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC),
which not only "do not support the just demands of Azerbaijan and do
not condemn the aggressor", but also make friends with the latter. In
this regard it must be reminded that the term "aggressor" can be used
only by the United Nations Organization. Only the UN has the right to
speak of an "aggressor state", rather than the politicians in Baku who
did not find anything better than to complain about the whole world.
Reverting to the issue of mercenaries, let us note that now it will be
harder to attract women-snipers their folks know quite well how they
paid for the dead Armenians. Not to mention the Ukrainian "volunteer"
pilots... However, Safar Abiyev assures that the Azerbaijani army
itself will cope with the "occupants". But it's his business, however.
Blessed are those who believe.
And now floods of tears and lamentations will be poured by May 9,
and Akif Nagi will go on his next tour to Karabakh. The other day the
board meeting of the Karabakh Liberation Organization (KLO) decided to
celebrate May 8 as the "Day of hatred towards invaders". According to
the decision, along with other activities there are to be organized
visits to Martyrs' Alley in Baku and its regions, burning of the
Armenian flag and photographs of her leaders, etc. KLO considers that
expressing particular hatred towards the occupiers on this day is
appropriate due to the fact that Shoushi "is the symbol of Karabakh
and one of the oldest and richest places of Azerbaijani culture". It
would be funny if it were not so sad. Azeri military experts who lost
the war will say that the Armenians do not know how to fight, that
they achieved victory by Russian assistance, and other such childish
prattle. But actually in the operation "Wedding in the mountains"
two and a half thousand soldiers were involved from the Azerbaijani
side and approximately the same number from Armenia. About 100 people
were killed from the Armenian side, while Azerbaijan lost about 700.
At the time of assault, military commander of Shoushi was Elbrus
Orujev, while the operation was planned and put into practice by
Arkadi Ter-Tadevosyan (Commandos) from the Armenian side. The storm
began at 2:30, on 8 May. A large military contingent was present on
the open road to the west of Shoushi. The soldiers were ordered not
to shoot at people fleeing from the city, but block the access to the
city for reinforcement. In the evening the Azeri army thought they
had repulsed the attack of Armenians. It was then that most of the
soldiers ran off and Orujev did not have enough people to continue
the fight. He gave an order to retreat. Among those who left Shoushi
last was Chechen fighter Samil Basayev.
It was with the liberation of Shoushi that the NKR Defense Army was
formed, which is one of the most mobile and capable armies in the
region today. And no matter our neighboring republic likes it or not,
such is the reality.
