Serzh Sargsyan visiting Sochi to meet with Azerbaijan's Ilham Aliyev
under Putin's aegis watched an international sambo tournament with
Putin. Not alone but with Aliyev of Azerbaijan. Putin had invited
Sargsyan and Aliyev to watch sambo.
We should pay homage to the imagination of the Russian president
to take them to watch sambo fighting ahead of their meeting
amid the escalation and increased number of casualties at the
Armenian-Azerbaijani line of contact.
What does Putin's "fable" teach? It is symbolic that amid
Armenian-Azerbaijani escalation, in almost a pre-war situation,
Putin organizes a meeting and takes Sargsyan to watch sambo
fighting, as if hinting that he has organized the Sargsyan-Aliyev or
Armenian-Azerbaijani battle.
Putin is resolving his problems, of course, and if need be, he will
not hesitate to organize an Armenian-Azerbaijani war.
This is the problem that Serzh Sargsyan resolved by watching Sambo
with Aliyev. There is no need to guess or assume. The point is that
watching sambo in the same raw with Aliyev having only Putin between
them is evidence of surrender in Sochi, acquittal of Aliyev of murder
as on the eve of the meeting in Sochi Azerbaijan, i.e. Aliyev killed a
peaceful citizen of Armenia, Karen Petrosyan captured by Azerbaijanis.
Perhaps there is no need to comment on the fact that after the murder
of the citizen of Armenia Karen Petrosyan Serzh Sargsyan relaxed and
watched sambo fight with Aliyev in the same hall, even if we assume
that it was for the appearance and destiny-making issues are discussed
in Sochi.
So what can be more important than the murder of a captured peaceful
citizen with scenes of humiliation and mockery. Serzh Sargsyan
should have refused to meet with Aliyev altogether, let alone watch
sambo with him, at least demanding that he apologize and commit to an
international investigation about which the Armenian MFA had demanded
on the eve. A state policy requires consistency and today we cannot
make tough assessments and demand an international investigation
and watch sambo with the president of Azerbaijan on the next day onl
because Putin has asked so.
It is possible that he did not ask but demanded. It is more probable
and typical of the Armenian-Russian relationship. In other words,
Serzh Sargsyan has actually surrendered on Putin's demand, once again
giving up Karen Petrosyan's right to live.
In theory, one should not rule out that Putin could have promised
something before the Sargsyan-Aliyev meeting, promising to force
Aliyev to make concessions if Serzh Sargsyan agrees to watch Sambo
with Aliyev and refrain from putting forth conditions. And this is
trade on the blood of a peaceful Armenian citizen. There is nothing
more dangerous for the state and any head of state than a state policy
implemented at this price.
