Armenians paying too high a price for premier`s experiments - expert 

ArmInfo.  The Armenian people are paying too high a price for RA Prime Minister Nikol  Pashinyan's experiments. Azerbaijan expert Tatevik Hayrapetyan writes  about this in her article.

According to her, during meetings in Germany, Nikol Pashinyan once  again made a very dangerous statement, proposing a joint roadmap,  leaving aside the topics of "Western Azerbaijan" and "the return of  Karabakh Armenians." He also noted the need to understand the  cause-and-effect relationship between these topics. "I would like to  touch upon this statement and the dangers associated with it in  several points.  As for the cause-and-effect relationship or how this  topic arose, the best answer to this was given by Ilham Aliyev in his  speech on December 24, 2022, when he literally stated: "There has  never been Armenia on this territory. Today's Armenia is our land.  Now that the Karabakh conflict has been resolved, this issue is on  our agenda. Of course, it was premature to talk about this before the  Karabakh conflict was resolved.  But we must not waste time. It is  necessary to develop a concept of return:" This issue surfaced two  months after Pashinyan recognized Artsakh as part of Azerbaijan. Many  Azerbaijani officials directly stated that they could not raise such  issues while the Nagorno-Karabakh problem exists. I think the direct  language should be clear. This occupation concept is a consequence of  Pashinyan's "fantastic" policy on the Nagorno-Karabakh problem,"  Hayrapetyan noted.

As for the 'rights of refugees', as the expert emphasized, this is an  occupation concept; there are no legal issues here. "There's a  saying: 'The Armenian state was formed on historical Azerbaijani  lands that were taken from the Azerbaijanis.' An entire generation is  being raised with this saying: in schools and universities,  competitions are organized, essays are written. All of this has  gained momentum over the past three years. This could and still can  become the biggest headache for Azerbaijan, provided persistent,  organized, and very competent work is carried out, but what could  become a headache for Azerbaijan is becoming a headache for us thanks  to Pashinyan," the political scientist noted.

She added that, in essence, Pashinyan is once again directing against  us what can be directed against Azerbaijan. "Even international  courts have rejected the issue of [rights] raised by Azerbaijan, so  putting it on par with the enshrined and internationally recognized  rights of the Armenians of Artsakh, who were subjected to an  aggressive war, ethnic cleansing, and forced displacement, means once  again [doing] a disservice to them." "service" to Aliyev. This  proposal, which, it must be said, has already been rejected by  Azerbaijani media, only obscures Azerbaijan's real occupation goals  and, moreover, lends them a dangerous "legitimacy." His exceptional  inability to solve problems is pushing Pashinyan to conduct regular  experiments. We paid a very high price for such experiments regarding  Artsakh. Now, if this man continues to lead, he will truly make this  issue a priority for us. I said that ordinary Azerbaijanis won't come  to Armenia; specially trained groups will come with clear occupation  plans. This is an exaggeration.  This conclusion is based on an  analysis of open sources. All of this can be avoided over time,  through intellect and hard work. The current Armenian authorities  will not do this. But if a pro-government government is formed, this  issue is entirely resolvable. The law and the facts are in our  hands," the political scientist wrote.
