YEREVAN—Ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) in Baku this November, Azerbaijan made a surprising move by placing the contentious “Zangezur corridor” issue on pause in its ongoing

Wilsonian Armenia boundaries doesn’t have support from any UN state so a dead letter
I speak for myself actually
Russia hypocrite, says Armenia was occupied internationally recognised Azerbaijan and must withdraw and then goes to occupy Ukraine with a friend like that enemies are easier to deal with
Yakub – take off the tinfoil hat.
The chameleon Azerbaijan will make short term adjustments just like big brother Turkey to satisfy short term interests….. in this case cleaning up its image for COP29. This has nothing to do with its long term goals. They speak of changing Armenia’s Constitution but at the same time overtly state about “western Azerbaijan” claims which is sovereign Armenia. They have zero credibility.
It is a joke for a fossil fuel dictatorship to host a climate conference.
I agree Stepan, except that it isn’t a joke, it’s outright genocidal and evil. As for Azerbaijan’s despotic fascistic leader, Ilham Aliyev: He does look like a clown, a scary clown, and the kind of clown that makes children cry, and mothers weep.
Azerbaijan, as usual, employs sweet doublespeak to portray itself as “moderate”, “peaceloving”(!), “tolerant”(!), “multiethnic”(!) and ready for “compromise” with Armenia(!), in its attempt to fool the outside world, especially when this sneaky dictatorship is about to host an international sporting event like the first ever European Games, an international music festival like the Eurovision, or an international conference like the COP29. And everytime, the outside world, especially the West, which regards itself as so sensitive on democracy and human rights, goes along with Azerbaijan’s devious charade.
One should take a glimpse at the foreign language news websites of Azerbaijan, where they often employ such sweet doubletalk to fool the foreign audiences, and compare them with news websites of Azerbaijan in Azerbaijani and Turkish via a machine translator, where they employ such vile Armenophobic vitriol, just like Nazi Germany employed the vilest anti-Semitic vitriol. The Azerbaijani dictatorship and mindset, is a like a person with split personalities, a Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde coming to life.
Steve M Al Jazeera did and probably still does the same double talk in English was quite moderate in reports and other Arab nations in Arabic quite seditious
Charles
Yes, Al Jazeera is indeed infamous for its employment of doubletalk, with relatively moderate coverage in its English language channel and website vis-a-vis the hardline coverage in its Arabic language channel and website. Apparently, its Arabic version is as hardline as ever.
Yakub Russia and Turkey get along reasonably Armenia is expendable to Moscow – sorry to upset you
Yakub, clearly the Kremlin the citadel of disingenuous malice hasn’t updated you that Turkey has made hostile rhetoric towards Israel and reduced trade and join the ICJ genocide petition against Israel so clearly it doesn’t get along with everyone actually ‘mate’
Yakub, it’s a bankers war, need better briefing from the Kremlin. Keep us posted on Kursk
Turkey doesn’t get along with any of its neighbors, except for Azerbaijan, Georgia and Bulgaria, for obvious geostrategic reasons, and also doesn’t get along with most of the Middle East and North Africa, except for Qatar, and nor with most of Europe, except for Russia, Belarus, Hungary, Serbia and Bulgaria, again for geostrategic reasons. Erdogan’s aggressive and interventionist new imperialist Pan-Turkic and Neo-Ottoman policies have alienated and antagonized most of these countries in these regions against Turkey, and rallied some of them against him and his country. Thanks to his ideological fanaticism, lust for power and megalomania, Erdogan inevitably shot himself in the foot, by recklessly plunging Turkey into dangerous adventures, which has gained nothing for the country, except in isolating it in the international arena and also ruining its economy. Hopefully, he continues to drag down Turkey with himself.
Russia and Iran need the land bridge called Armenia intact, despite the US’s and the turks best efforts to sabotage it (using they’re stooge pashoglu to try to make that happen). The population in Armenia is by and large ignorant and/or apathtic it seems. Give them their kebab and snoop dogg concerts and they’ll be happy.
No Turk can ever be trusted.
Any agreement with the Turks will have to be backed up by force.
Armenia’s knife must always be aimed at the Turks’ neck.
