of azerbaijan cannot attack. myself, good sir, international discussions were followed, a group called the minsk group was established for mediation, which did not reach a conclusion, and in october 2020, azerbaijan began an attack on seven cities, and also on the right to liberate the city, and together seek freedom. it took 44 days to do it, azerbaijan was able to do 5 to liberate the city through the military, and then i was invited by armenia and azerbaijan to moscow, and in the agreement made in moscow between mr. pashinyan, the minister of armenia, and mr. putin, two cities in azerbaijan were also liberated as a result of this agreement and returned to azerbaijan, but the frog was the solution. it didn't happen and it was agreed that during the negotiations between armenia and azerbaijan under the supervision of russia, 15 years can be extended for another 5 years , this issue will be resolved. you asked, in my opinion, do you have a problem? it became a strategic mistake and instead of trying to push for t

azerbaijan's actions are level and azerbaijan _ escalating.re level and azerbaijan is operating i escalating. azerbaijan's actions are | level and azerbaijan is operating on sovereign territory to dismantle an alliance with military infrastructure at the meantime the separatist entity challenging the sovereignty of azerbaijan and azerbaijan security and wider regional peace and security. at the message from etheridge on another and inviting armenians of karabakh to discussions but we are talking about in this case a militaryjunta that also takes a hostage local armenian residents who also would like to release local armenians from this simply criminal oligarchs but taking the local populations hostage. to release them and ensure normal reintegration process for the local structures of azerbaijan including and also providing the social welfare. azerbaijan solicit that they are willing to provide security of karabakh armenians public institution and also international obligations of azerbaijan especially the context of conventions on the product

when between azerbaijan and army -- one between azerbaijan and armenia.ensions are escalating once again. so why is this happening now and where might it lead and what role are russia, the u.s., eu and turkey playing in this? first this report. >> skirmishes that brokered between azerbaijan and armenia have escalated -- broke out between azerbaijan and armenia have escalated at the border despite their commitment to a peace process. >> the military political situation in our region has seriously deteriorated in the past week because azerbaijan has been amassing troops for several days along the contact line at the border. >> azerbaijan insists armenia is the instigator. >> armenia still does not demonstrate goodwill. the armenian side is playing a game of delay and confusion. >> the mountainous region lies within azerbaijan's territory. it is controlled by ethnic armenian forces. the former soviet republics have thought two wars for control of this region. a six-year conflict that ended with a cease-fire in 1994, then again in 2020 when more than 5000 peo

by west azerbaijan, i mean azerbaijan, which we must mean by this country, west azerbaijan , the southernregion of armenia. this ultimate goal is one of the long-term goals of azerbaijan and turkey in the southern region of armenia, closing iran's communication routes towards europe is extremely dangerous for iran . the security field and the military field in the 19th century . i said, but dubbing the principles of the islamic republic iran is very reasonable and acceptable and in line with international standards at the highest level. at the level of the supreme leader, it has been declared that we should support the territorial integrity of the countries in the region and we are against the arrangement of international borders. and we showed the determination that we had in the diplomatic meetings with the authorities of azerbaijan, we had with turkey, we had with russia, we immediately declared a red line and will not accept the japanese changes in any way, and at the same time , the resistance that all the occupied cities of azerbaijan should be freed is the only leader who the artic

the republic of azerbaijan, which the words of azerbaijan cannot attack . these seven cities and people i am a good champion of international discussions. a group called the minsk group was established for mediation, but it did not succeed . the war lasted for 44 days, azerbaijan was able to liberate 5 cities through the military, and then i was invited by armenia and azerbaijan to moscow, and in the agreement between iran and mr. pashinyan , putin's armenia was made. two other cities in azerbaijan were also liberated as a result of this agreement. it was returned with azerbaijan, but the method has not been resolved it happened that the negotiation between armenia and azerbaijan with the russian government can be extended for another 5 years . the settlement is good. after this happened , the demand of the people of the republic of azerbaijan increased from this country . sir, why did you start taking karabakh? it became a strategic mistake and instead of seeking the pressure for the liberation of karabakh under the leadership of turkey , he raised another

this aggravation between azerbaijan and iran seems to be avoided without talking about south azerbaijanalso one of the alarming things. the fact is that if we talk about turkey, then for turkey this is turkic unity, turkic reciprocity by analogy with slavic reciprocity. this is the last ah, great power bet, which played out in the case of azerbaijan. after many of turkey's other bets didn't work out, turkey didn't play out its bet on a liberalization as a source of great power status didn't work out, and the idea of ​​joining the eu didn't work out, then the bet that was made during the arab spring on islamic democratization and turkey as the leader of islamic democratization. now a turkish theme has arisen, a turkic theme, and of course, if this theme is developed consistently, then questions must be raised with the fraternal azerbaijanis. well, here, too, there is a balance of excitement and sanity, again we believe that the west, the united states in particular, plays an important role in the events and these and in general in the south caucasus , this is probably the case in yerevan

of karabakh do not want to be part of azerbaijan, and azerbaijan does not want armenian armed groups to be in that region . so the justification for azerbaijan was that there are armed groups of armed armenians operating in nagorno-karabakh and they should leave this territory, information about violations of the cease-fire regime was constantly received. baku claimed that the armenians opened fire, and therefore armenia accused azerbaijan of the fact that it was the azerbaijanis who shot the armenians there are russian peacekeepers in the region, they have already reacted today, the spokeswoman of the russian foreign ministry, zakharova, said that the russian federation calls on the parties to the conflict to take measures to stop the bloodshed in nagorno-karabakh and to return to a diplomatic settlement end of quote as you know, russia was dissatisfied with armenia, recently moscow criticized armenia because of joint military operations with the united states training on armenian territory , russian peacekeepers still react to clashes between the belts and azerbaijanis as a violati

azerbaijan ensuring freedom of movement.n the meantime, secure communications for armenian residents. it is a personal decision. reporter: but they are essentially being forced from their homes? >> no. the republic of azerbaijan as a result of counterterrorism actions on the ground did not enter civilian settlements and major cities. so far, azerbaijan armed and police forces are gutted by principles -- are guided by principles. we're trying to ameliorate the humanitarian situation on the ground. there was no single resistance on the ground. reporter: the kremlin spokesperson has said that an international observer mission could only go into nagorno-karabakh with the azerbaijani side's agreement. what is your position on that? if you have nothing to hide, then it's ok surely? >> we are not creating a restrictive zone. currently we are in contact with our counterparts in azerbaijan. the u.n. office is accredited. some of the representatives could also have access for a security consolation. but we don't think there is need fo

azerbaijan refused, and the question was in the air.he says is that there is an option through iran, but in fact, through iran , the situation will be the same, when the iranian border is crossed from azerbaijan, of course there will be iranian customs, border guards will meet, azerbaijan will pay taxes, and the road will continue along iranian territory, yes there was a real question, that is, it is impossible to say that the armenian side refused, they demanded an equal approach, our cargo, now they showed it correctly. i see the map now, and they said, please, we also want to use this road, that is, so that our iron goods and trains go through the territory of azerbaijan from north to south. azerbaijan did not agree to this, so everything is up in the air. well, look, rif, how about you, mr. rif, and what do you think, relatively speaking, it’s like this, speculative question, you can also speculate. it's clear, in 10 years, okay, in 5 years, how will this whole structure exist, that is, nagorno -karabakh will not be under any influe

there is an official, so to speak, opposition in azerbaijan. er, in azerbaijan, people are not afraidhe kind that exists in russia, in azerbaijan he cooperates with international communities , there he releases political prisoners, there in ilham aliyev he balances between the fullness of his power, ugh, and the power of his honorable wife, it is also necessary to remember that this is a family tandem, putin is not putin, he will never have such a happy family life, you see, imagine that you have a wife and she is not just your wife, but friend. the second first vice president, it is possible to dream only of such a thing, i think, well, but if, no joke, in any case, this is a whole system of relations with the world, putin got rid of this whole system a long time ago, so i think that for by and large, as long as russia is locked in our war , it will lose more and more, why i say it depends on our capabilities at all, to lose, the south caucasus and i really hope that it will happen, i want to thank you christina , for the opportunity to discuss this in such detail difficult topic, an

azerbaijan.well, in absolute numbers, if look, then azerbaijan invests approximately 2.5 times more in its armed forces and in addition, the military military reserve, that is, the mobilization reserve of azerbaijan significantly exceed the mobilization reserve of the army. today, which path did you take , you see that nikol pashinyan stated that there are allies who do not fulfill their obligations to supply weapons and an agreement is concluded with armenia. 400 million dollars for arms supplies from india, whatever goes there, goes there. uh, multiple launch rocket systems go there, artillery systems go there , various anti-aircraft systems go there, that is, quite a large amount of equipment actually goes there from india, this is becoming a fact, in fact, the main military partner carries out all this, of course, deliveries through iran to iran for its part, of course. this is not displayed anywhere. because iran acts as a rogue country in the international arena. well, i’m sure that iran is

moscow organizes a coup in armenia, more successful than the coup in azerbaijan.the former comes to power in yerevan. robert kocheryan is such an armenian medvedchuk, and from this moment the entire negotiation process with azerbaijan is canned, and azerbaijan led by heydar, aliyev, led by his heir milham, he is preparing for some kind of revenge, and armenia is not preparing for anything in particular, because why does she think that russia should prepare for her. armenia lives in complete poverty, in blockade, in corruption, you can't even imagine what state the country was in, people are leaving, karabakh itself lives like a surrounded fortress, it is impossible to look at it with objective eyes, precisely because if you you start talking to armenian politicians, listen , you understand whether the country is a disaster, but we won nothing like that, russia protects us, and events are taking place here, when the armenian people themselves lost patience due to the fact that this clan, which came to power in 1997, does not want to give up power, and the people ar

ambassador to azerbaijan.welcome to you all and thanks for joining us today on "inside story." esmira, let me start with you today. azerbaijan now intends to bring nagorno-karabakh under full control. how easy or difficult will that be? guest: thank you very much, first of all, for the invitation. azerbaijan conducted a short uh antiterrorist operation, which is aimed at only targets, provit no civilian objects were even harmed or where the object of the operation. the reason was that recently, two days ago, seven azerbaijani policemen were killed as a result of a landmine explosion planted in azerbaijani land via the infiltration of armenian forces after the war was over. we have been warning about the threat for a long time and also about the existence of around 10,000 armenian billy show. they were all unheeded. as a result, all of these events happening one after another, are a short, local antiterrorist operation. today there was a meeting with representatives of the karabakh armenians in the region. the

the opponent of the occupation of the region by azerbaijan is to return the region of azerbaijan., quick action is strategic information to prevent the effective action of the syrian and russian peacekeeping forces in the region and to easily occupy the region in an azerbaijani way . he said that it is an international role, thanks to turkmenistan, turkey's port is to the west and it is trying to look like a new belt. i am with you. there is an iranian license plate from the direction of the caspian sea, then turkmenistan , kazakhstan and kyrgyzstan. including three in addition to this issue, apart from regional issues, it has complex international dimensions and some kind of international divisions. you mentioned the third phase of this area north of the aras river, which is the border of iran with armenia from sivnik province , if i am not mistaken, this program will be in armenia. it is azerbaijan that still has an eye on the region, and it may be on saturday, it cannot be said without a doubt that it has an eye , it is a part of the strategy that is of strategic importance for

turkey is helping azerbaijan.are uh literally a few minutes ago they were talking about france. i believe that france should protect armenia, this is what they were talking about, however, in fact , it turns out that they help azerbaijan much more and it turns out that turkey is a neighbor of these countries and has much more history with azerbaijan from ankara , for sure. they will seek to negotiate with russia and will try to take a stronger position. i don't think moscow will be ready to accept this. we must also take into account the g20. the caucasus and the mediterranean are all these different places in the world where the balance of power is changing. i would like to point out that consensus is missing from this situation. ankara will certainly seek to pursue its own interests. he will definitely negotiate with moscow. they will discuss something related to the caucasus at these negotiations, however, once. most likely, in the end it will strive for the golden mean. and at the same time, it is better to ex

i am from azerbaijan. how did we develop principles? the attitude of both armenians to armenia, independent armenia, and independent azerbaijan. so, we were interested in the negotiation process between armenia and azerbaijan and were very sorry that this process did not lead to the proper result. i would like to remind you that ukraine even provided the platform at one time for the meeting of the president of kocheryan with aliyev in yalta, such a meeting was held in yalta, that is, if you ask me , it is clear that i live by this, in addition to the fact that i know the armenian language as an armenian by education. so , i follow the events through the internet i know what is happening there now, i know the atmosphere and of course i would like you to establish a dialogue. should have been done earlier because of the uncertainty that currently prevails among the population of nagorno-karabakh leads to thousands of refugees who have gathered are now gathering in stepan kirta and in particular at the airport of nagorno-karabakh near step

yes of course, directly, during our conversation, azerbaijan is now physically engaged in bringing as close as possible the moment when the so-called republic, not only deyura, but de facto on the ground, will become the karabakh economic zone azerbaijan, directly in these at this moment are going relevant processes. in my superstitious coordinate system, for me the final solution to this issue will be after the flag of azerbaijan in khankend, this will happen in the near future, i think, and the main moment when the last russian peacekeeper will leave the territory karabakh read azerbaijan. it is more difficult here, because, first of all, azerbaijan , which is doomed to work, lead, liberate territories, conduct a counter-terrorist operation, is now, well, in some communication with russian peacekeepers, and baku makes it clear that in this bargaining system, it will not pedal the issue to the end 20th, 25th year. regarding the withdrawal of russian peacekeepers, this is written in the night paper based on the results of the 44-day war in november of the 20th year, but another thing

in contrast to the words of the minister of foreign affairs of the republic of azerbaijan, the minister of foreign affairs of armenia also spoke and said that this republic of azerbaijan is bullying and is responsible for hundreds of thousands of women, children and innocent people in the karabakh region and is trying to make armenia enter into a military action , but still this country emphasizes on peace and he wants to have a good relationship with his wife, the minister of mineral services. he participated in the general assembly. we know well that these countries are financially burkina faso, and here during this time with france, my brother, minister shun, also used this opportunity and in this way once again accused france of the situation the current situation in libya, which is now trapped, is under the responsibility of former french president nicolas sarkozy, and he is also responsible for the west african economic community and the african union, and the minister of foreign affairs of venezuela had interesting talks about the conflict between the united states and the provoc

can we say that azerbaijan finally manages to return karabakh? yes, of course, right during our conversation, azerbaijan is now physically engaged in bringing as close as possible to the moment when the so-called nagorno- karabakh republic not only where jura and de facto on the ground will become the karabakh economic zone of azerbaijan directly in this at this moment the corresponding processes are going on in their superstitious coordinate system for me the final solution to this the question will be after the flag of azerbaijan in khankendi, uh, this will happen in the near future, and uh, the main moment, when the last russian so-called peacemaker , the peacemaker, left, will leave the territory of karabakh, it is more difficult for azerbaijan here because , first of all, azerbaijan too, which is doomed to work, lead, release territory, this whole terrorist operation, now, well, in a certain communication with russian peacekeepers and baku , where is it to understand that uh, he will not pedal the issue until the end of the 20th, the 25th ye

and today, if we take azerbaijan, then for azerbaijan this is an absolutely historical day .to exist and following the advice of its great father, ilham guitareevich. aliyev put an end to this. this is the only struggle of opposites, what margarita simonovna spoke about and what she is experiencing and thousands of armenians and the fact that today, well, because it’s the thirtieth anniversary the existence, of course, of nagorno-karabakh but the millennium of the father’s existence, of course, this was the land of the armenians until the moment they came to the trees. and the fact is that, well, they handed over the shrines, and there’s no other way to say it. of course, for the armenians , we have a task now. he did everything to prevent the tragedy of the armenians of nagorno-karabakh. because now some rumors are spreading, it is necessary to check that pashinyan is afraid to let them into the territory, armenia because it is clear that he will receive 150,000 people who will demand an answer.

with azerbaijan, ratherthan azerbaijan, towards cooperation with azerbaijan, rather than supportinga is a major arms supplier to azerbaijan, for example and you can tell from the behaviour of fear peacekeeping forces, i should say, the behaviour of their peacekeeping forces in karabakh suggests that the russians have abandoned armenia in favour of azerbaijan. indie have abandoned armenia in favour of azerbai'an. ~ , ., azerbaijan. we will see what the outcome of _ azerbaijan. we will see what the outcome of that _ azerbaijan. we will see what the outcome of that is. _ azerbaijan. we will see what the outcome of that is. good - azerbaijan. we will see what the outcome of that is. good to - azerbaijan. we will see what the outcome of that is. good to talk| azerbaijan. we will see what the l outcome of that is. good to talk to you professor. you might not realise it when you sit down to your dinner tonight but some of the common foods you eat, which sit so perfectly formed on your plate, are highly sensitive to their growing environment. when a cauliflower is mature, its leaves open to

the republic of azerbaijan launched an attack on positions in the west an hour ago . ministry of defense of the republic of azerbaijan announced that the country's army has started its operations to fight against terrorists from this military operation. the expulsion of the armed units of armenia from the territory of azerbaijan has been announced. the ministry of foreign affairs of the republic of azerbaijan announced that the only way to establish peace and stability in the region is the complete and unconditional withdrawal of the armenian forces from karabagh. to leave through human crossings and armenia or other regions , the russian foreign ministry, in response to today's action of the republic of azerbaijan, stressed that the agreements signed in the west should be presented with some sources of closing the airspace of azerbaijan to armenian planes and cutting off communication with the capital in response to the attacks of the republic of azerbaijan, alarm bells have been sounded in spain and the center of karabakh. previously, the ministry of defense of the

yes, in relations with azerbaijan, this will not pass, and azerbaijan will be in every possible way theerbaijan. the arab army and the support of this part means the population of azerbaijan, from the side of the army, we have removed this obstacle and we are ready to sign the peace treaty, you include it in itself exclusively between the states of the empire, and then yes, our countries will be more subject and more independent, and independence in our conditions is the ability to say no even to an ally if his proposal will be uh-uh in the future precisely in national interest, so we expect that in the near future there will be an identification of the main process of peaceful settlement , otherwise our countries, that is, external forces, they will use this conflict between our countries, practice has shown that azerbaijan is getting out of this situation winning state more subjective opinion subjective armenia should be more interested in peace in the region and so that because of the conflict, neither russia nor any other country would want to interfere in our region with their own

and the return of karabakh to azerbaijan.ve to end today with this, see you next week at the usual time on monday, on the air of the tv channel, do not switch now, the broadcast continues, congratulations, we are looking for six-year-old varya sozonova, who mysteriously disappeared even before the beginning of the full-scale: invasion of russia, namely december 5, 2022 year i immediately ask you to share this video on your social networks networks, because if as many people learn about the search for the child, the more chances there will be to find it. so, her grandmother is looking for varia. she told us that the girl lived with her mother in kyiv. in the winter of 2022, they went to moldova and were in the city of grigoriopol in transnistria. since then, why mother and daughter went there, the grandmother cannot say for sure, but since december 5, 2022 , almost nothing is known about the fate of little vara and her mother, i don't know. well, how to look for them, in general, what are the possibilities that i can do let's

recognizes the territorial integrity of azerbaijan on 86,000,600 m², while azerbaijan recognizes theitory of the republic of armenia on 29,800 m². this is the first. the second question is the rights and security of the armenians of nagorno-karabakh should be discussed through dialogue between stepanakert and baku. in what format is the point of nagorno-karabakh, just as it was never recognized by armenia as independent, and remains unrecognized to this day in the relations of the karabakh armenians with baku, there is no yerevan, it is clear that aliyev in these conditions needs ensuring peace on its territory for the armenian armed forces in nagorno-karabakh clearly does not fit into the design of the new world according to the agreement of the twentieth year. they had to be withdrawn, but they were not withdrawn; moreover, the executioner’s corridor was also receiving weapons on the sly from armenia; baku had strong concerns about this. first, the azerbaijanis set up a post there, restricting movement, and after a shootout broke out over the azerbaijani flag displayed on the outsi

the azerbaijan presidential administrations that azerbaijan was ready to meet with representatives of the armenian population of cara black -- i've nagorno-karabakh. armenia is not going to launch any military operations against azerbaijan. emmanuel macron promised diplomacy at the united nations meeting. armenia blames russia for taking sides with azerbaijan and supporting azerbaijan, not armenia, in the conflict. >> moving on to other news now, israeli forces have killed at least three palestinians in the occupied west bank. 30 others were injured when israel launched an assault on a refugee camp. there have been several raids on the densely packed camp this year. >> what we know from palestinian sources is that israeli forces have rated the ginny refugee camp for about two hours. they have killed palestinians in the confrontations that took place during that raid. let's not forget that camp has been the epicenter of tension for the past year or so. the latest assault on the camp took place in early july where more than 13 palestinians were killed by israeli forces in a major assaul

what has been discussed all these years between azerbaijan, armenia and russia?ontrolled seven regions, which it brought under its control. after the well-known armenian azerbaijani conflict, we proposed to reach an agreement with azerbaijan in such a way that two regions would remain under the jurisdiction of virtually armenia and all of karabakh , but the armenian leadership did not agree with this, although they tried to convince armenian leadership. for decades , 10-15 years to our question. what will you do? no matter how they answer us, we will fight. well , okay, in the fall of 20 there was a very serious escalation with numerous casualties. this is a tragedy. we are very worried , suffice it to say that there are about 2 million azerbaijanis living in russia and over two million. according to our armenian calculations, a huge number of russian citizens maintain close friendly and even family relations with both republics. of course, this is a huge tragedy. or people hygiene putin was then in constant telephone contact with baku and yerevan. we managed to

was returning the territories that it considered azerbaijan? the world community was considered azerbaijani territory in that interview, putin recalled that russia recognized the independence of south ossetia, abkhazia was reunited with crimea to someone. some people may not like this, but we did it in the interests of those people who live in the interests of all russia, we are not shy about to say this directly. this was done in relation to karabakh. it was not done, and this was in a significant way, of course, it had an impact on all the events taking place there. obviously, after the conflict of the twentieth year, it was important to clearly implement everything that was agreed upon. al sivy, there can only be one war , pashinyanaya aliyev regularly flies to russia even despite the fact that during the pandemic contacts are sharply limited and at the highest level you are satisfied with the result of negotiations with the president of russia, we had a very eventful the agenda effectively contains a lot of issues related to the situation i

that was the azerbaijan _ this opportunity. that was the azerbaijan foreign _ this opportunity.azerbaijan foreign minister. this opportunity. that was the - azerbaijan foreign minister speaking at the un a few moments ago. life back to the un general assembly. russia's foreign minister speaking now. translation: the element bereft of their basic fire for self—preservation, headed up by washington countries that are not only expanding and modernising their descent offensive capabilities but going into space and the information sphere with new dangerous manifestation of the expansionism was extending the alliance's area of responsibility to the entire eastern side of the world using the pernicious slogan of the indivisibility of security. the indo asian pacific region and to this aim washington is creating political alliance like injapan and the republic of korea, canberra and wellington. they are pushing the dispensation of the structures to practical cooperation with nato and this is bringing its infrastructure into the pacific area. it is obvious that such efforts are targeted

azerbaijan predominately muslim. armenia predominately christian. two have very different languages with different alphabets. in 1891, the old soviet union fell apart and at that point, there were particular tensions over this region, nagorno-karabakh. as you can see, it is in azerbaijan, but the population are mostly ethnic armenians. mostly they wanted to join with armenia. there were protests. there were local acts of violence, but eventually, a full-scale war broke out, and this really was a very ugly war. there was shelling. there was bombing, but there were also lots of attacks on civilians, plus suggestions of atrocities being committed by both sides. a cease-fire was agreed in 1994, but it never really addressed the underlying issues, the underlying tensions, so in 2020, once again, war broke out. again, a very ugly war with some close hand-to-hand fighting, but this time, azerbaijan had the advantage, partly because turkiye gave them advanced drones to use, and azerbaijan managed to seize a whole chunk of nagorno-karabakh. part of the probl

azerbaijan has oil, turkiye is a modern economy.t doesn't have many cards to play except perhaps the fact that in the united states there's some simple the four armenians -- for armenians. president biden was the first president to recognize the genocide of the armenians in 1915. there is goodwill and we saw today usaid give a sign of support. the issue still is, if the turks and azerbaijan decide on that corridor, will the rest of the world stop them? we will find out, i don't know the answer. anchor: thank you very much for your analysis, and your time. correction on something i said, the prime minister not the president of armenia. we continue to monitor the situation in nagorno-karabakh. more than 200 people injured after a blast at a petrol station. most of the injured are in severe condition and have been transported elsewhere by air as they cannot treat all of them properly. we will bring you more on this latest development, believed to be not related to the conflict, but is a lot of confusion and resources are very stretched

no reports about sharing or fighting between armenia and azerbaijan, and on the armenia and azerbaijander. our hope is that it will stay with nagorno-karabakh, because if we talk of another full-scale war, then we have to talk about other regional players such as turkiye, about iran, and iran's interests in the south of armenia where they have a land border. it is actually the only land access iran has towards the? it given armenians membership in the eurasian economic union. so that's what we have to look at. my feelings so far is that it is about nagorno-karabakh purely. so far, the armenian governments prime minister, although being under heavy public pressure, we have seen protests and even violence tonight on the streets of yerevan. however, passion and announced that he gave strict orders that the armenian literary horses will not respond to any provocations from the azerbaijani side. so they keep quiet as much as they can. so far, that is a good sign. nicole: what do you think would de-escalate the situation to keep it from spiraling under control? guest: the good news is that i
