"There is no case in any region on the earth where relative peace is
observed for so many years without the participation of third forces.
Despite the belligerent rhetoric of Azerbaijan, thanks to the
preparedness, morale, self-denial, defiance of our troops we can
maintain peace in both the Republic of Armenia and Artsakh," said
the RA minister of defense Seiran Ohanyan at the French University
of Armenia.The Armenian army does not need a third force to ensure
security.
Seiran Ohanyan stated against the third force in the area of the
conflict earlier this year, during the summer developments in
Armenia and Artsakh. At that time stationing of "peacekeepers" in
the conflict area was being considered but the army's actions made
the plan obsolete.
Is the issue again being considered if the minister repeated the army's
stance? Azerbaijan has recently been active on the borders, having
signed a new plan of defense cooperation with Russia. At the same
time, CSTO leadership has set to "monitor" the situation at the state
borders of its member states. Besides, there are circles in Armenia
who have been lobbying the "stationing" of CSTO forces in Armenia.
Hence, the minister's statement is hard to call the "next". A
complicated military-political situation and a lot of trouble
is awaiting Armenia and Artsakh after membership to the Eurasian
Economic Union.
