First, let me tell you why I think that in the near future Azerbaijan will resume its attack on Artsakh.
1) The enemy has accumulated a huge troop and military equipment in the NKR-Azerbaijan contact line, indeed not for asking for our health.
2) Russia, Europe with its structures and the United States, knowing very well who the assaulter is, did not condemn Azerbaijani aggression by limiting to the impersonal calls for a ceasefire. Belarus, Ukraine, Pakistan, Turkey, the Organization of Islamic States and other structures are encouraging Azerbaijan for a new attack. All of this, of course, is the “achievement” of our “brilliant” (but very confidential) diplomacy.
3) In this tense situation, after so many victims, neither Armenia nor Artsakh nor Azerbaijani societies are ready to accept any concession proposal. Advancing at least half a practical step by the means of concessions would mean the end of the authorities of these countries.

4) In the case of Aliyev, war and anti-Armenian hysteria is the only way of solving the internal problems.
The upcoming attack which we certainly will throw back will also not be the last, there will be more attacks and it might last for decades. This does not mean that we should not try to become a normal state, should not develop the economy, culture, tourism and sport just as Israel does it (weary but appropriate parallel).
I understand consolidation as a consolidation of all Armenians before the foreign danger. This means, particularly, giving up disseminating lie, panic and enemy’s advantageous rumors and judgments about the army and combat operations, irrespective of its advantage to win political dividends and deserve the applauses of the “offended”.
Consolidation does not mean glorifying the authorities, “oh, how goodly you behaved by rigging the elections for the Hrazdan mayor.” No, the authorities should continue to be the target of ruthless criticisms. But what is said should eventually promote to the correction of defects rather than be just an expression of negative emotions of this or that individual or a group.
… The “collective attack” on the military doctors working by the 24-hour regime during the days of war is a vivid example of such emotions.
