The incidents over the Khankendi airport have exposed serious
controversies inside Armenian society, Center for Political Innovations
and Technologies Director Mubariz Ahmedoglu said during a press
conference on Wednesday.
In his words, if the Armenian mass media reported that Khankendi
airport under the leadership of the head of so-called "Civil Aviation
Administration of Nagorno Karabakh" Dmitry Atbashyan is ready for
use, without consent of the country's political leadership, this
proves existence of not only controversies but also animosity between
Armenians from Nagorno Karabakh and Armenians from Armenia.
"In case if the statements were consented with the Armenian government,
this demonstrates the political illiteracy of the government. The
head of General Administration of Civil Aviation of Nagorno Karabakh
Artem Movsiyan stated that the airline, established for flights
in Yerevan-Khankendi direction, doesn't have permit for flights,"
Ahmedoglu added.
In his words, need for a new flight direction for the major Armenian
Armavia airline is not out of economic considerations.
"Such short distance flights are more expensive. Also, the economic
situation in Nagorno-Karabakh is not conducive to this. Given that
the issues of control and permit to Yerevan airport under the control
of Russia, in contrast to passenger car transportation, organized
flights may soon lead to a depopulation of Nagorno-Karabakh. Armenian
government realized its mistake and was quick to take a step back,"
Ahmedoglu said.
