“The situation is very difficult not only in Armenia. Nobody knows how the events will develop after May 9 and 10,” said former Deputy Interior Minister Tigran Avagyan during a roundtable discussion on May 6 titled, “Armenia at the crossroads: Challenges and Opportunities for Sovereignty and Identity,” referring to the situation in Armenia. He noted that Armenia can not resist the Azerbaijani-Turkish alliance without allies.
“In this situation, it is necessary to carry out serious diplomatic work with the West. When I speak of the West, I mean the Anglo-Saxon countries – America, Canada, Great Britain, Australia. Neither Germany nor France can be a guarantee for Armenia, nor did they exist a hundred years ago, when we lost Cilicia, the same now.
That is why Azerbaijan will definitely try to take advantage of this situation, and when Russia weakens, it will attack. And now the most important thing is to understand what forces the Armenian world has in the military arena, what forces it can accumulate to defend the territory of the current Republic of Armenia.”
