YEREVAN. - In the case of military operations at the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict zone, Russia will not carry out a military intervention,
but it will exert all political and legal efforts to end the military
operations, Black Sea-Caspian Region Political and Social Research
Institute analyst Andrei Areshev stated during a press conference
on Monday.
At the same time Areshev noted that localizing military operations
in such small region is not too likely.
"In addition, there is an official position and there are demands that
are closer to reality. And, at the crucial moment, the commander at the
battlefront does not think that much about being dismissed," he said.
In his turn, CIS Institute political scientist, analyst Mikhail
Aleksandrov stressed that such military operations will be connected
with the territory of Armenia, too. He stressed that Armenia will
provide military assistance to Karabakh, and therefore Azerbaijan will
be compelled to strike Armenia. Otherwise, its entire infrastructure
will be destroyed.
"And at that time the CSTO mechanism will become active," Aleksandrov
noted.
And responding to Armenian News-NEWS.am's query as to how Armenia
and Nagorno-Karabakh today must react to Azerbaijan's provocations,
Mikhail Aleksandrov stated that the force of the Armenian party's
retaliation needs to surpass that of Azerbaijan.
"If the aggressor always receives an equivalent response, it will
continue to behave inappropriately. Aggression must be quelled,"
Mikhail Aleksandrov noted.
