Talking is cheap. If they wanna war, they must start if now. Who is holding them back...?
Little Ilham, like I said before, will start a war to prolong his staying in power. But this time, the borders of Armenia will stretch to Kur river, and the borders of Medz Hayq[from the North-East...] will be restored. What was given to them by Stallin will be taken back by force.

Azeri Minister of Defence: Chance of war is close to 100% with Armenia
Baku threatens war with Armenia

by Aris Ghazinyan

The moderate course of the meeting of the Council of CIS Defense Ministers in Kazakhstan on Tuesday was broken by a sensational revelation by the Azeri defense chief Safar Abiyev that “as long as Azerbaijani territory is occupied by Armenia, the chance of war is close to 100 percent.”

The sharp boost of bellicose statements by official Baku has been clearly felt since the beginning of this autumn when on September 7 President Aliyev stated that “for the purpose of restoring control over the whole territory of the republic, Azerbaijan is ready to resort to any measures, including application of force.”

Three days later Abiyev’s claimed: “War is underway and the enemy starts to shoot at our positions.” He repeated the words of President Aliyev that only for military needs official Baku spends a sum comparable to the whole budget of Armenia.

Deputy Speaker of the Armenian parliament Vahan Hovhannisyan, who is a senior member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun), responded to the MOD’s statement saying that in military operations in the early 1990s, Azerbaijan’s military budget exceeded the financial possibilities of the defending Armenian population, however this superiority did not play a decisive role.

The peculiarity of the latest statement of the Azeri minister is the very format of such a statement. The Commonwealth of Independent States is not a militarized bloc, however at the table of discussions there were also heads of defense departments of post-Soviet countries that are part of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO). Five of the six members of this military-strategic alliance, namely Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Russia and Belarus, are connected between themselves by alternating borders and only Armenia is in land isolation.

However, in accordance with the fundamental principles of the CSTO “any member country can expect help from the collective quick-reaction forces of the CSTO in the event of a threat to its security.” Thus, Abiyev’s statement is associated with a gauntlet thrown before the foundations of the CSTO and currently the Armenian political establishment expects a corresponding reaction from this military-strategic alliance.

Nevertheless, while the CSTO is pondering over the advisability of accepting the Azeri gauntlet, Armenian Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan stated on November 29: “The armed forces of Armenia are always ready to defend the country’s borders and the Azerbaijani side must consider that if it chooses a military way of solving the issue, it will have to solve more complicated problems than it solves now.”

However, it is in the recent time that aggressive statements of Baku officials are “backed up” with unprecedented powerful information support. Practically on a daily basis Azerbaijani news agencies report about growing tensions on the contact line, which create an atmosphere of the need for retaliating. In particular, in the past few months the Day Az agency has been replete with daily reports about killed and wounded Azeri officers and soldiers.

Now few doubt that Baku is developing schemes of establishing its control over the territories of the former Azerbaijani SSR. Despite numerous statements about the possibility of renewed hostilities “in order to recover occupied lands”, there are no reasons to assume that Azerbaijan is planning a large-scale counter-offensive along the whole frontline. Apart from other things, a large-scale war will create a threat to the functioning of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline that lies close to the security zone and whose operation fills the military budget of Azerbaijan. It is evident that in the event of a new war, Armenian defense forces may as well permit themselves to deliver target strikers against the oil pipeline, or as Kocharyan said, “take a decision that the military situation will require.” It is beyond doubt that Azeri authorities realize well such a prospect.

A blitz local operation that Azerbaijan is likely to be preparing for is quite a different thing. Such a scheme implies waging an active war on a small area with a huge loss of human lives. It is a situation that Baku is ready for to a certain degree. The “big war in a small area” scenario fraught with a seeming transformation into large-scale military operations is oriented to intervention of the international community, in particular the United Nations. Official Baku has repeatedly tried to shift the discussion of the Artsax problem from the OSCE to the UN format with a prospect of redeployment of an international peacekeeping contingent on the frontline, including along the whole perimeter of the Armenian-Azeri state border. According to one of the schemes being developed in Baku, Nagorno-Artsax will be thus cut off from Armenia by the “blue helmets” and the occupation regime of the UN. However, a well-considered military provocation in the form of a small war is needed for that, for which Azerbaijan is likely to be preparing for.

OSCE concerned about the cease-fire violation

The OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Finnish Foreign Minister Ilkka Kanerva, expressed serious concern today about military activity on the Line of Contact in the conflict dealt with by the OSCE Minsk Conference on the morning of 4 March, in particular over reports of casualties including fatalities.

"I call on the parties to exercise maximum restraint, and observe the terms of the cease-fire," the Minister said. "At this critical juncture in the negotiations to find a peaceful solution to the Nagorno-Artsax conflict, any action leading to a destabilization of the Line of Contact can only have a negative impact on the overall situation. I urge the parties to avoid actions that could lead to further unnecessary loss of life."

The Chairman-in-Office, recalling his trip last week to the region, added that in his talks with the leadership in both Armenia and Azerbaijan he had underlined the importance of maintaining stability in the region and of efforts towards a peaceful resolution of the conflict.

"My Personal Representative on the Conflict dealt with by the OSCE Minsk Conference, Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk, is in the region at the moment and has been in close contact with the parties," the Minister said.

Co-Chairs propose organizing the first meeting between the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan

20.03.2008 12:05

"The Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group (Ambassadors Yuri Merzlyakov for the Russian Federation, and Bernard Fassier for France, as well as Mike Carpenter, Advisor to U.S. Co-Chair Matt Bryza) met with the Armenian Minister of Foreign Affairs Vartan Oskanian in Vienna on the 14th of March and with the Azerbaijani Minister of Foreign Affairs Elmar Mammadyarov in Paris on the 15th of March.

After these meetings the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs recall that, as reiterated before the vote on the "Resolution on the Situation in the Occupied Territories of Azerbaijan" at the UN General Assembly, France, the Russian Federation and the United States support the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan and therefore do not recognize the independence of Nagorno-Artsax, while holding that the future status of Nagorno-Artsax is a matter of negotiations between the parties.

The Co-Chairs remain convinced that any peaceful and equitable settlement of the conflict will require unavoidable compromises among the parties. They underline the urgent need to resume the negotiations after the pause due to the presidential election in Armenia. In that respect, they note with satisfaction the affirmation of both Foreign Ministers of the need to continue the discussions between the sides.

The Co-Chairs proposed to the Foreign Ministers to organize the first meeting between the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan as soon as possible. The Co-Chairs express their sincere hope that this meeting, accepted in principle by the two sides, will take place and lead to the resumption of negotiations for the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Artsax conflict on the basis of the Document on the Basic principles for the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Artsax conflict, presented to the sides on November 29, 2007 in Madrid before the opening of the OSCE Ministerial Council.

Finally, at a time when serious clashes resulting in the loss of life have occurred along the Line of Contact, the Co-Chairs urge both sides to refrain from unilateral and maximalist actions on the ground, at the negotiating table, as well as in their public rhetoric, and to fully and strictly comply with their obligations relating to the cease-fire."

Robert Kocharyan: We have no format for talks better than the Minsk Group

20.03.2008 16:04

"We have no format for the negotiation process better than the Minsk Group, but it does not mean that we will necessarily stick to that format if Azerbaijan does not accept it," RA President Robert Kocharyan told a press conference today. "If they dont want to negotiate, let's not negotiate. We have always been ready for talks and we think that it is the only way to resolve the issue. If they don't want, please, but at the same time if they do not negotiate they must think how they see the future and who will carry responsibility for the possible steps. My impression is a bit different: the recognition of Kosovo's independence raised a big wave of anxiety, and they are trying to take certain steps to take the further initiative and somehow counterbalance the possible application of that precedent," Robert Kocharyan clarified.

According to President Kocharyan, Artsax has greater and more grounded rights to be independent than Kosovo: Nagorno Artsax's independence was proclaimed in September, 1992, the referendum was held in December, the Nagorno Artsax Republic has all state institutions and defends its independence and territorial integrity itself. "From this perspective Artsax's rights are more advantageous, and this negotiation process is more necessary to Azerbaijan that us. If they continue in the same style, our next step should be recognition of Artsax's independence and signing of a correspondent document with NKR on reciprocal support, organization of common defense and other issues. In any event, these would be my future steps."

By forcing the passage of the resolution on Nagorno Artsax in the UN General Assembly on March 14, Azerbaijan made an attempt to counterbalance the Kosovo precedent, pretending that the precedent does not apply to Artsax. "There is the independence of Kosovo, the process of recognition of this independence which is quite understandable and is not conceived by all states in the same way. However, feeling that danger and seeing that these conflicts are rather alike and it's very hard to find the right qualification of a "precedent or no precedent," they are trying to counterbalance it with such a resolution. However, their counterbalance was not correct and far more states did not support them. There are both a political pretext here and an attempt to solve the issue in a military way," RA President noted.

According to him, the violation of the cease-fire, the passage of the resolution in the UN and the attempts to dissolve the Minsk Group are targeted at checking the level of strength of the Armenian side. "I have no doubt that if they were confident Armenia and Artsax were weakened, Azerbaijan would make an attempt to succeed," Robert Kocharyan noted.

Bryza: The date and place of the next meeting of the Presidents remains unclear
22.03.2008 12:42

The issue of the date and place of the next meeting of the Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia remains unclear, the US Co-Chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group Matthew Bryza told Trend News.

According to unofficial information, the meeting of the Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia regarding peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Artsax conflict may take place at the beginning of April in Bucharest within the NATO summit. Yerevan and Baku highlighted their preparedness to re-establish the negotiations process which was suspended as a result of presidential elections in Armenia in February.

The U.S. Co-Chairman said that the President of Armenia, Robert Kocharyan, who completes his presidential term will not participate in the NATO Bucharest summit, and the newly elected President of Armenia, Serge Sargsyan, will come to the presidential oath no earlier than 9 April, Bryza said, adding that it remains unclear when the next meeting of the leaders of the two countries will take place.

The U.S. politician considers that the fair and sustainable settlement of the Nagorno-Artsax conflict remains as one of the key issues of the US-Azerbaijan partnership. “The United States and Azerbaijan are satisfied with the deep friendship and strong strategic partnership. The high-ranking officials of Azerbaijan clearly made aware Washington that they intend to, in every possible way, strengthen and intensify our close relations in a wide diapason of issues of mutual interest,” said the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, Matthew Bryza.

Matthew Bryza: What is on the table is a fair and balanced compromise
25.03.2008 12:45

Commenting on the recent criticism of the Minsk Group by Azerbaijan, the US Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Matthew Bryza declared in an interview with the Armenian Reporter that he “does not think that any of the people that are out there criticizing the Minsk Group proposals are aware of what is really in the proposal.”

“What is on the table is a fair and balanced compromise that includes elements that are attractive to Azerbaijan, an interpretation of which was cited in the UN GA resolution, but there are also many elements that are very attractive to Armenia that were not cited in that resolution,” Matthew Bryza said.

Speaking about the possibility of the meeting between RA President-Elect and the President of Azerbaijan on the sidelines of the NATO summit in Bucharest, the American mediator said he could not mention the exact time. “The calendar is a bit complicated in that President-elect Sargsyan will not be inaugurated until April 9, and the summit in Romania is from April 2 to 4. So Prime Minister Sargsyan will not yet be the President. There is a protocol problem, which could lead to a delay, but it is up to them if they get together there. And if they don’t, they would be able to meet shortly thereafter. In terms of agenda, it is clear now that the President-Elect of Armenia is in favor of continuing on the basis of the proposal on the table as it was presented at the OSCE ministerial meeting in Madrid last November,” Matthew Bryza said.

If Armenia recognizes Nagorno Artsax, “that will be something that is very seriously undermining the peace process,” Matthew Bryza said, commenting on the talks in Armenia that it should recognize the independence of the Nagorno Artsax Republic after the recent non-constructive actions of Azerbaijan.

“I think any move that prejudges the outcome of the negotiations that are underway and that are achieving some real results in terms of moving closer to finalizing the basic principles would be unhelpful. And we looked at the UN GA resolution of Azerbaijan in that very light: that it was a one-sided resolution that did not reflect the fair and balanced nature of the proposal on the table. Similarly, if the Armenian side were to move unilaterally and prejudge the outcome of the negotiations by recognizing Nagorno Artsax, that would be something that is very seriously undermining the peace process,” the US diplomat noted.

“I think that would be a highly asymmetric response to Azerbaijan’s move at the UN GA and potentially a highly destabilizing move. It would mean to decide that this is the end of the negotiating process and we have unilaterally declared that the conflict is resolved in this way,” Bryza said.

Commenting on the possibility that some of US assistance programs may be suspended because of the events in Armenia, the US Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group said “since positive steps have been taken in terms of the lifting of the state of emergency in Armenia, there is no need for us to take negative steps on our side.”

“I hope very much that lifting of the state of emergency moves tensions in Armenia to a new phase, in which freedoms and democratic momentum in Armenia are restored and we get back on track with all of the items on our important agenda,” Matthe Bryza said.

Bul-Buloglu: I cannot imagine how the Co-Chairs will visit Baku again
25.03.2008 17:38

Baku will use all chances for peaceful settlement of Nagorno Artsax conflict, Polad Bul-Buloglu, the Azerbaijani Ambassador in the Russian Federation, stated in his interview with Nezavisimaya Gazeta newspaper.

“Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev noted in his statements that in the world stakes have been made on force recently. Force will be a decisive factor in solution of most disputable issues. I would like to note that Azerbaijan will use chances to settle the conflict through peaceful ways. We do not want bloodshed from both sides,” he stated.

Bul-Buloglu touched upon the voting on the UN General Assembly resolution introduced by Azerbaijan. “Voting against the resolution, the Co-chairs created a very complex situation. I cannot imagine how they visit Azerbaijan again. The key principle of intermediation, neutrality was violated. How could such representatives act as mediators?”

Speaking about the negotiations on the Artsax settlement, the Ambassador said he supports the attraction of Eastern European countries to the process. According to Bul-Buloglu, there is need to intensify the potential of other member-countries of OSCE Minsk Group.

“Of course, nothing will come out without Russia. Certainly, nothing comes out in the world without the United States. I think, however, that we can involve fresh players. Why we should not involve Eastern European countries, like Romania and Poland?” he stated.

Azeri opposition party to protest in front of US< French and Russian Embassies
29.03.2008 14:08

Next week the Azerbaijani “Muasir Musavat” opposition party will hold acts of protest in front of the Embassies of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair countries – Russia, France and the United States.

Leader of the Party Hafiz Haciyev told Trend News that the action is aimed at demanding the termination of the Minsk Group activity, since the Co-Chair countries voted against the Resolution on the “Situation in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan” introduced to the UN General Assembly.

“The protest will be conducted even if the rally is not authorized by the executive bodies of Baku,” Hajiyev said.

Zeyno Baran: Azerbaijan is worried that Kosovo may be used as a precedent
01.04.2008 13:35

Director of the Center for Eurasian Policy and Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute Zeyno Baran declared in an interview with Mediamax that “Baku’s sharp criticism of the Minsk Group Co-Chairs, especially the US, is a strategic step to reinforce the support of Azerbaijan’s position in the world.”

Zeyno Barak expressed the opinion that the adoption of the Resolution on Nagorno Artsax in the UN General Assembly “was a response to the proclamation of Kosovo’s independence and the broad support it received in the West.”

“Baku is worried that Kosovo can be used as a precedent, and Georgia shares this anxiety. Thus, this Resolution can be viewed as an attempt to prevent such development of events. Moreover, taking into consideration the fact that Russia is using the issue of the Kosovo precedent in the context of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, I think that Baku and Tbilisi wished to get convinced that Kosovo would be viewed as a unique case, and see how Russia would vote,” Zeyno Baran said.

“There is growing concern in Azerbaijan that the West is unfair towards it because of it’s being a Muslim country. Azeris see how resolutely the US defends the territorial integrity of Georgia and do not see a similar attitude towards them. Certainly, taking into consideration the fact that the United States is a Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, the US Administration cannot have a different stance on the Artsax issue. Unfortunately, it’s hard for an ordinary Azerbaijani to understand or accept this difference. Many Azeris feel that they are an important ally of the US in the fields of energy security, fighting terrorism and other issues, but they do not get much in response. At the same time, the Azeri Government and most of the society understand the importance of partnership with the US and will not allow that Resolution to harm Baku’s relations with Washington,” Director of the Center for Eurasian Policy and Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute said.

Zeyno Baran: Serge Sargsyan is a well-known leader in the West
01.04.2008 15:52

Director of the Center for Eurasian Policy and Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute Zeyno Baran declared in an interview with Mediamax that “she has seen no statement that would indicate that the US Government officially supports Levon Ter-Petrosyan.”

“The fair negative attitude of the West was directed against the use of force, the restrictions on media and other measures undertaken by the authorities in power. I’m sure the reaction of the West was directed towards defending the peaceful democratic maturity of Armenia and must not be viewed as actions for or against concrete persons,” Zeyno Baran said.

The Director of the Center for Eurasian Policy and Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute said “that Mr. Sargsyan is a well-known leader in the West, especially Washington.”

“He is known as a politician, who sincerely believes in Armenia’s complementary foreign policy and has implemented it. I see no reasons that would make him change it. Naturally, such policy derives from the national interests of Armenia,” the American analyst said.

Commenting on the forthcoming participation of RA President-Elect in the NATO summit in Bucharest 2-4 April, Zeyno Baran said: “I think the Western leaders are waiting for the meeting with him. Those who already know him will meet with him in his new status and will continue working with Armenia on core issues, particularly the Artsax conflict settlement. Under the conditions when Georgia and Ukraine are resolutely struggling for NATO’s Membership Action Plan, and Azerbaijan demonstrates obvious interest in the possible membership, it would be interesting for NATO to learn from Mr. Sargsyan about Armenia’s long-term intentions.”

Azerbaijan accuses the OSCE Minsk Group co-chair countries of violating the principle of neutrality
02.04.2008 14:49

By voting against the resolution of the UN General Assembly "On situation in the occupied lands of Azerbaijan," the OSCE co-chair countries have violated the principle of neutrality, said Azerbaijan's Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov.

"The assurance of the Co-Chairs that voting against the adoption of the document, they tried to be unbiased does not correspond to reality," he told reporters on Tuesday.

The Deputy Minister also noted that the request of official Baku regarding the replacement of OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs is a kind of warning.

"The Co-Chairs should take a lesson from this message. We are satisfied with the activity of the OSCE Minsk Group. However, the recent steps, cause our resentment. We consider that the potential of the Minsk Group has not been exhausted and the Co-Chairs have monopolized the peace talks," Azimov noted.

He said the provision of territorial integrity of Azerbaijan occupied an important place among proposals, put forward four years ago.

"If not so, official Baku would have rejected the talks. Azerbaijan will not accept the loss of a part of its lands and will ensure its territorial integrity by any means," the Deputy Foreign Minister said.

He also touched upon the possible future of the Lachin corridor. Noting that the corridor is important both for Azerbaijan and Armenia, Azimov noted that official Baku proposes the possible use of the corridor by both parties provided that it remains part of Azerbaijan. He said that the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs are aware of it and this issue may become a subject of discussions in the further talks.
