After Aliyev's threatening statement, the government of Armenia went to the 3rd concession, wrote NA deputy Tigran Abrahamyan.
He emphasized that after the dissolution of the OSCE Minsk Group and the assurance to implement the amendment of the RA Constitution in the shortest period of time, the Pashinyan government also gave way in the matter of border demarcation.
"The favorable and factually logical approach for Armenia was to start the border demarcation in the areas occupied by Azerbaijan in the period of 2021-23, and Azerbaijan insisted on the direction of Tavush, on which a conclusion was reached.
Starting from Tavush is of vital importance for Baku, because the RA government earlier declared the so-called enclave villages - Verin Voskepar, Sofulu and Barkhudarlu villages - Azeri, and their handover will destroy not only the internal communications of Tavush region, but will also put the road to Tavush under attack. Bagratashen - the highway going to the Armenian-Georgian border and entering Armenia from Georgia the gas pipeline.
Another serious problem will be the road from Ijevan to Berd, a part of which will come under the control of Azerbaijan. At least, at the moment, there is no political decision regarding their exchange or other solution.
I also want to remind you that according to the signed and ratified charter of Armenia and Azerbaijan, if, for example, after the forced demarcation of the Tavush region, Azerbaijan fails the negotiations with some invented reason and the demarcation is not continued, then the status of the agreed/demarcated areas or the changes made to the previous point there will be no possibility to return it anymore," the deputy wrote.
