(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 19. The Austrian
Dasfazit.at online newspaper in the light of
the latest events on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, published
another article entitled 'Ilham Aliyev's victorious
streak over Armenia continues', which argues for the clear
superiority of Azerbaijan over Armenia on the battlefield as well
as on Political arena, Trend reports.
The article provides a number of losses from the Armenian side,
including military equipment, the cost of which is estimated at
billions of dollars, a number of major strategic heights, and the
whole transport and communication system, which came under the
control of Azerbaijani Armed Forces. The article also notes that
Armenia has heavy losses in manpower, and there are also
wounded.
The material reports that Armenia lost all military facilities
built by the Armenian Armed Forces in the direction of Lachin,
Kalbajar and Zangilan, which posed a threat to Azerbaijan and that
Armenia will need at least four to five years to restore them.
Touching upon the events of the Second Karabakh War, the article
adds that Armenia's losses at that time amounted to 10,000
servicemen, and material damage - more than $2 million.
Furthermore, the article emphasized that Armenia has still not been
able to compensate for the damage to military equipment suffered
during the war.
According to the article, the position of the Armenian side is
described as 'hopeless'. The shock of Armenian society as a result
of the above-mentioned losses and defeats on the battlefields
manifests itself in fear and pessimism, disbelief that the society
is experiencing in relation to the central government. All this, in
turn, flows into demands from the political authorities for a
report on the reasons for the defeat, as well as calls for the
resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
In addition, neither Armenian 'ally under the military agreement
partnership', nor the CSTO military bloc, of which the country is a
member, met the expectations of Armenia. The CSTO countries refused
to provide military assistance to Armenia, which according to the
article, is largely the result of the successful diplomatic
activities of Azerbaijan, which managed to attract states that are
in the same military bloc with Armenia on its side. And most
importantly these states showed respect for the military and
political decisions of Azerbaijan.
The material also highlights another noteworthy point which is
Pashinyan's refusal to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization
(SCO) summit in Samarkand. This is argued by the fact that he
didn't want to be in the circle of influential politicians. The
article draws a parallel to the event of November 10, 2020, when
Pashinyan refused to sign the trilateral statement in front of the
cameras. The very fact of Pashinyan's refusal to take part in the
summit of heads of state within the framework of the SCO is
assessed as a political defeat of Armenia to Azerbaijan.
Moreover, the article emphasized that by doing so, Pashinyan
missed his chance to join political discussions with the
participation of the leaders of the region, who are directly
connected 'with the future of the South Caucasus' and
Armenian-Azerbaijani relations.
The article concludes that as a result of successful operations,
both on the battlefield and political arena, Armenian society and
the leadership of Armenia once again immersed into a state of chaos
similar to the situation that prevailed in the country after the
defeat in the second Karabakh War.
And all this is presented in the article in the Austrian
newspaper as a bright victory for the President of the Republic of
Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev both politically and psychologically. And
the failed attempt of provocation by Armenia added one more victory
for the Azerbaijani people.
