Foreign minister of Russia Sergey Lavrov stated in Yerevan State
University that after the withdrawal of troops, return of "regions"
to Azerbaijan and "creation of a corridor", the people of Karabakh
will decide their own destiny on their own. Apparently, saying "will
decide their destiny", he means self-liquidation.
It is more than clear that such a shocking and challenging speech
by Lavrov in Yerevan was the rehearsal of his visit to Baku where he
will state that security in the Caucasus and Caspian region depends
on partnership between Russia and Azerbaijan. At the same time, we
can deduce that Russia is trying to create an extremely uncomfortable
situation for the Armenian authorities prior to the parliamentary
elections.
It would be good to learn the opinion of the leaders of the Prosperous
Armenia Party on this matter who are the closest to the Russian
interests in the political field of Armenia. It is necessary to
understand that this is only the beginning of the "honeymoon" with
the Russians. Not finding anything worthier, Moscow is trying to
undermine the image of the Armenian authorities with the help of the
Karabakh issue. There could be nothing uglier in this situation.
Russia is worried about the process around Azerbaijan, especially
with its relations with the U.S., Israel and Iran. There is a real
threat to the Russian interests in the Caspian region, and Russia
is again trying to reveal the futility of its policy to Azerbaijan
which is under the American hood.
It is high time to demonstrate again Moscow's willingness to sacrifice
the Armenian interests. Who else needs to become the conductor of
the Russian policy or be the "puppet" in this cheap play?
No doubt Lavrov's visit to Baku will fail, taking into account Russia's
interests. Anyway, it will be found out that Russia will have to
resort to the fulfillment of the policy of undermining the foreign
policy and state building in Azerbaijan. Apparently, this visit to
Yerevan was a rehearsal. The visit to Baku will be the "verification".
