Azerbaijan unlikely to declare war on Armenia - expert
16:03 - 15.06.13
The president of the Armenia-based analytical center Modus Vivendi
said Saturday that he expect Azerbaijan's wide anti-Armenian
propaganda to lead to a war renewal with Armenia given that the
Western powers would not be interested in such a scenario.
`No war is likely to break out. First, it isn't advantageous to the
West as that would event the oil structures to the ground,' Ara Papyan
told reporters.
The expert said he doesn't find Azerbaijan's military advantages
powerful enough to secure its victory in a possible war. `The weapons
it purchases cannot in any way secure a win, considering the
organization of the troops or the geographic location. Yes, we
complain of our army a lot, but it isn't comparable to what is going
on in Azerbaijan,' said he, adding that Armenia has turned out lucky
enough to have such a western neighbor.
Noting that Azerbaijan's only advantage is its money, Papyan said that
resource is not really enough to secure a success everywhere.
He said the country will hardly ever agree to make Karabakh part of
its land as it isn't absolutely interested in that piece of land.
