By the time the last bus carrying ethnic Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh arrived in Goris, an Armenian city on the border with Azerbaijan, the scale of the tragedy had become clear. The 19 September lightning offensive by Azerbaijan ended thirty years of self-rule in the breakaway region, located within its borders …

Azerbaijan neither sent death squads into Karabakh to slaughter Armenians like Hamas sent into Israel to slaughter Jews nor did it bomb Karabakh into oblivion like Israel is doing to Gaza. With this in mind, no honest Israeli or Hamas supporter can accuse Azerbaijan of the same crimes as their …

How would you describe Pashinyan’s political position at present? Pashinyan is in a very difficult position after this week’s events since many among the population consider him a traitor to their national cause, which they regard as extending into Azerbaijan’s Karabakh Region.
