(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 8. The true intentionof the US and EU is to arm Armenia, as stated by the WesternAzerbaijan Community, Trend reports.
"During the meeting in Brussels on April 5, 2024, involvingArmenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, US Secretary of StateAntony Blinken, and European Commission President Ursula von derLeyen, decisions were reached regarding assistance to Armenia bythe EU and the US.
While official statements to the press indicated solelyfinancial assistance, there's widespread belief that the actualintention is to provide military support to Armenia. Today, afaction of members of the EP known for their anti-Azerbaijanstance, led by Nathalie Loiseau, urged US Secretary of State AntonyBlinken and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen toextend assistance to Armenia's "security" following theaforementioned meeting," the statement reads.
The community notes that all of this serves to create a publicbackdrop for open military support for Armenia.
"Once again, this underscores the militarization agenda behindthe April 5 meeting. It's disheartening to see EP members portrayArmenia as a "martyr for democracy", despite its history of ethniccleansing of one million Azerbaijanis, occupation of 20 percent ofAzerbaijani territories for three decades, and prevention of300,000 West Azerbaijanis from returning home.
The Western Azerbaijan Community condemns the biased treatmentby European Parliament members and reiterates its call for the EUand the US to refrain from actions exacerbating the regionalsituation and to abstain from providing military aid to Armenia, they should support Azerbaijan, which grapples with thedestruction and mine issues inflicted by Armenia, and advocate forthe return of Western Azerbaijanis to their ancestral lands," thestatement reads.
