Get educated about the topic then make a video.. all lands belong to Azerbaijan based on international Law. in 1990s armenian seperaitsts forced around 750K azerbaijanians to flee, thats why in last 30 years they have been in majority. We dont have problem with civilians as during the Sovet era we lived together peacefully and married to each other. Even, after the war broke out there are still thousands of armenians resided in Azerbaijan. if you google 1918 Azerbaijani Map, you will see even more lands belong to Azerbaijan but we respect international law - if Armenia signs Peace Treaty and recognizes our territorial integrity we'll do same. We dont want anohter war, we need peace for economic development. Azerbaijani Turks are not stupid and very secular, we dont act on instincts we calculate the future and try foresee before making a decision..
Armenia getting back much less than what they did 90s in Azerbaijan which you forgot to give some details about that. The name artsakh doesn’t exist anymore , at the time you making this video, yet you repeatedly saying it. You could have said Karabakh, which both sides understand that. You are not ready to make these kind of videos if you’re not neutral in this matter.
Armenia should have traded Nagorny Karabakh from a position of power it had, it's 30 years of failed politics that led to this. A settlement with Azerbaijan would have made the position of Armenians in that region much better. My thoughts are with the people that leave their homeland after centuries.
They shouldve traded Karabkah for returning the surrounding villages. There was such an offer in 2005 I believe in which Armenia would annex Nagorno-Karabakh and the Lachin corridor and Azerbaijan would get a corridor connecting Nachkhivan and Azerbaijan through Meghri. But it didnt go through
They did, and Kanye insulted the Jews because Israel is giving Azerbaijan weapons, but then they froze his bank accounts and kicked him out of adidas Yeezy program as revenge. The Kardashians tried using Kanye West, but they failed.
Is it hard for you to show how Azerbaijani refugees left in the 90s?! 1 million people are officially confirmed by the UN as refugees of Azerbaijan. By the way, the same UN organization has 4 resolutions on the withdrawal of occupying Armenian troops from the territory of Azerbaijan..
600k refugees. And they were warned and were not forced to leave. Unlike Azerbaijan bombing civilians. Azerbaijanis left on their own merit. Stop spreading your government propaganda.
Liar? it was the Azeries with the programs towards the armenians in the late 80s, sumgait, baku, and then the harassments of the Armenian population in stepanakers and surrounding area. I know for a fact there was no programs towards the azeris. My uncle even bought a property from them in armenia during the first war. you have been fed propaganda since the early 80s. @@EliHaNavi

Well i guess talking about arresting Putin was bad idea after all... Imagine Ukraine would say they would arrest Biden, dont think America would help them after that.
Azerbaijan is a much better ally than Armenia. Azerbaijan should for its own self interest take more land back from Armenia. It will give a direct route to Europe without having to go through Georgia and Armenia. It will also isolate Iran which is most definitely something that Azerbaijan wants. Don't mistake Russia not helping Armenia as weakness because this is geopolitics.
@@ВикторДенисов-е2л Disregarding the entire discussion regarding if the Russian “special military operation” is justified or not, if the CSTO works a bit like NATO regarding mutual defence, then Armenia was the only one, regardless of narrative, who was attacked and therefor the only one who could request mutual defence. No? It would be a bit like the US not coming to the aid of France if they were invaded, because France did not support the US "special military operation" in Iraq. Surely, a cause for diplomatic tension between the two countries, but not cause for dismantling of the alliance. If France on the other hand would have refused to defend the US if they were invaded, they could most likely not rely on support if they were invaded later. Simply put, a defensive pact obliges members to come to aid with defence, not attack. I could be wrong about how the CSTO works though.
Armenia is such an unfortunate country. Its most important national sites like Lake Van and its ancient capital aren't even within its borders and are now 0% Armenian, it now only has a small sliver of its historical territory and even this is getting cut apart. Its brutal. Hell even if the Kurds are made independent they'd end up with a large chunk of historical Armenian land, its just that over for Armenia.
I mean technically by reclaiming NK and also by Azerbaijan's treatment on the Armenians for the past 9+ months they can't claim any legal way on the Zangezur corridor? The peace negotiations from last week were with NK's Armenian leaders and not Armenia itself, meaning the treaty of 2020 is 100% invalid now and Armenia has no obligation to create this corridor. Furthermore, if Azerbaijan decides to use force in this matter, it will be a full scale invasion on Armenia which both the West and even Iran will react to.
Nice, Iran is long standing ally of west. Gob bless free democratic Iranian islamic republic and its ally armenia. and of course the west always be on the side of iran.
Actually, Azerbaijan had to restore the terms of ceasefire agreement signed in 2020 because Armenians and so-called Russian peacekepeers didn’t honour it. So, the agreement and Zengezur Corridor is still on the table. Moreover, Azerbaijan will put a detailed list of the damages for the 30-year-old occupation on the table and this will worth tens of billions of dollars at least. I really wonder how Armenia will be able to pay this amount to convince Azerbaijan to sign a peace treaty. Azerbaijan and Armenia are technically still at war with each other as you know. Armenia has two choices: They will either pay the compensation or give up on Zengezur Corridor. If west and Iran are so keen on defending Armenian position, they should start collecting money to pay Armenia’s debt.
It really seems to me like Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan just made one of the toughest call in modern geopolitical history, knowing he would be called a traitor, all for the sake of long term peace. No matter how it all turns out, the man deserves respect.
Not for peace tbh. armenia humiliated and lost badly im 2020. He didnt want to experience same at least they are still alive. You can watch hundreds of drone footages how armenian soldiers dying for nothing. Also for armenias future he must balance states position. He should have alliances with everyone
According to CSTO, Russia has responsibility to protect Armenia only if another country attacks Armenia’s int’l recognized territories, but this war is in Azerbaijani soul. Even Armenia recognize Karabakh as a part of Azerbaijan
You are right but Azeri's did attack Armenia proper and the CSTO did Nothing, the Azeri's have taken small parts of Armenia proper and they are there till today
Victory of Azerbaijan, no matter how weird it sounds, was best possible outcome for Armenia. The ethnic conflict practically ended, and with it, ended time of Russian influence in region. Finally Armenia would achieve peace, and Russia wouldn't be able to manipulate Armenian people by supporting pro russian-agressive politics. Now Armenia can fully focus on economy and social problems, instead of spending so much into this ethnic conflict.
It's not over with Azerbaijan being an unpredictable dictatorships, Armenia will always need to maintain a strong defense if they want to have any kind of safety. The actual thing that will solve this is reliable Western partners with a stake in peace, ie EU or NATO. And solving ethnic conflicts is a giant step towards achieving that
There are coming wars in Central Asia too, and I suspect Georgia may start to think about getting back its territories. I'd say Putin's Russian bear has lost its teeth and claws.
Abkhazia and North Ossetia both have a land connection to its main security guarantor. Besides, the power disparity is not as big between Georgia and its separatist regions as it was in Nargono-Karabakh and Azerbaijan. I don't think much will happen, otherwise, we would already be seeing signs of it
@@ПеремогобудAll those Russian immigrants are pro Georgian Russians that do not mind Georgia restoring judiristriction over those lands, Georgia has not lost, it's using silent patience and strategy to avoid conflict as much as possible and restore its lands, I'd say it's the best strategy available at this time.
Azerbaijan military was supported by Russia for some time until 2020 but Armenia changing from sides to the west was a mistake and the reason why Azerbaijan attacked.
@@comradericefarmerhao2269 Azerbaijan was preparing for the war and buying billions worth of military equipment (mainly from Russia) long before Armenia had its revolution in 2018. I don't think Armenia staying loyal to Russia would have changed that.
Armenia is land locked and far from the powerful nations of the west, (other than Turkey, which isn't really western anyway). The best they can hope for is a western benefactor that will give them weapons. Since they're largely viewed as a Russian ally however I don't see that happening.
@@comradericefarmerhao2269 Dude, Russia also support Azerbaijan, most of the equipments of Azerbaijan are from Russia and Turkije. There's literally Russian military base in Armenian. Several actually It's Armenian fault to trust Russia.
@@Distress. partly true, N-K itself didn't have oil although had metals. Any victorious nation inevitably rests on laurels in Europe had rested on the peace dividend since WW2 but the notion that it would continue always was niavety. Many Armenians overated their achievements of the 1990s and wrongly thought because they had won then they would win again or at least be able to hold onto what they had and wrongly thought Russia wouldn't let them loose hence their current epiphany
@@Distress. The funny thing is that Azerbaijan had a friendship agreement with Russia two days before it invaded Ukraine which it's doubtful that Azerbaijan wasn't aware of its imminence also it launders Russian oil and gas Europe is aware of this thus Azerbaijan isn't in quite the good books it once was also being a family firm government and even Israel can't help it as much as before as Netanyahu is in a weaker position and joe Biden hates him whereas Donald Trump short of attacking Iran did everything he wanted regarding Iran
Now this is a trap for Turkey , attack on sovereign Nation , now this is Armenia , not Karabax.Karabax is part of Azerbaijan, like Kosovo I Metohija that belong to Serbia . Current under occupation of Nato and Albania terrorist.
The armenians could have done a deal a loooong time ago, to keep parts of the Karabach and the Lachin corridor while giving the azeris the rest of the Karabach and a corridor to Nakhchivan. But they were stubborn and overconfident! Now they pay the price...
I agree but I think they would rather lose a lot than to allow a direct link between the Turkic peoples. That's because Russia doesn't like that link, Iran doesn't like it, the US and the rest of the West don't like it and certainly Armenia doesn't like it. Armenia was designed to be a Buffer state so Turkey doesn't get that link to its brethren countries.
Nope. It was just a matter of time until Azerbaijan would conquer the whole area anyways, because Azerbaijan are clearly richer, have better allies, and have a larger pool of manpower. Also, the Armenian public would have never agreed to such a deal.
Regarding the Karabakh conflict and possible Nakhchevan conflict, I think that it will be fascinating to see how Saudi Arabia, Israel and Iran will react. Iran is Armenia's oldest ally and won't abandon the Armenians, and Armenia is, so far, favoring Iran more than any partner, even Russia doesn't receive that. Iran won't turn its back to Armenia, if Azerbaijan really attacks Armenia via Karabakh. Saudi Arabia is another fascinating case. Initially Saudi Arabia supported Azerbaijan, but since 2010s, anti-Turkish sentiment resulting in warming of relations with Armenia. Saudi Arabia was the one that helped the United States to finally recognize the Armenian genocide in 2019, and was also the one that imposed economic blockades against both Turkey and Azerbaijan during the Karabakh War of 2020s (which ended with Azerbaijan victorious). Just two years ago, Mohammed Bin Salman welcomed Armenia's President into their country, the first ever visit by an Armenian President to Saudi Arabia despite having no diplomatic ties; yet at the same time refused to invite Aliyev and Erdogan to the event. Saudi Arabia also finances the Kurds against Turkey in both Syria and Iraq, which Ankara despised. Israel is another case, which is interesting here. Israel nurtured an anti-Turkish alliance as far as 2017, which included France, Saudi Arabia, Cyprus, Libya (the Benghazi part), Greece, Egypt, UAE, Bulgaria, Jordan and Bahrain, as well as unofficial member India. Mossad chief Yossi Cohen even shocked his guests by naming Turkey and Azerbaijan as major threats for peace in the region after discussion with the Saudis, Egyptians, Emiratis and even the Greeks. While Saudi Arabia is the leader of this alliance, Israel is the mastermind. This deliberate statement deeply upset Azerbaijan, since this reveals that Azerbaijan is seen by Israel as just a lacky of Turkey despite the initially very strong alliance between Baku and Israel and Israel's support for Azerbaijan, partly against Iran. But that changed because of Erdogan and Israel deliberately supported the recognition of Armenian genocide by the US in 2019 and 2021 contributed to this outcome. So far, none of the trio have recognized Karabakh to be independent, but firmly Azerbaijani soil. But if Azerbaijan goes too far, there shall be alert. I think Azerbaijan sees it well and won't go further. There is a sense that Azerbaijanis are increasingly resentful of Saudi Arabia and Iran, while at the same time they aren't as positive to Israel as used to be. Azerbaijan and Turkey are overall, share the same culture, heritage and history and Azerbaijanis would consider themselves pro-Turkish before anything else.

Best possible scenario would be if Turkey, Azerbaijan and Armenia could reconcaliate and open borders to each other. Is it possible in a near future, I think not.
while you are right, I think having the militarily stronger nation in control might lead to less and less armed conflict in the area, at which point (I am guessing about 30 years from now) if we want peace, azerbaijan should allow people who are fleeing now to re-enter the country and live in the Karabakh the way they used to. Only in such a scenario will we ever have the opportunity of longterm peace and reconciliation

Armenia is giving up Kharabakh because of Zangezur. If there are no Armenian people there, there is no need for Lachin Road, if there is no Lachin Road, that is, there is no need to give Zengezur to Azerbaijan and both Russian peacekeepers
True. What is also true is that Armenia Still occupies internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan. If you want to be objective and not miss any details.
There is a war going between Azerbaijan and Armenia for 30 years, why would Azerbaijan capturing some small Armenian territory would be ''a big detail'' while Armenia kept occupying 20% of Azerbaijan for 30 years??..
Armenia also occupies Azeri exclaves. The two occupied old Soviet exclaves that were deep in each other's territory. Given that they were rather remote and small, no one really cared about them.
Russia not helping Armenia by keeping the Lachlan corridor open for food and medicine and essential supplies, was not just because Russia is weak and pre- occupied with the war in Ukraine. The Armenian president has been stating that his country will move closer to the US. It has recently held military exercises with the US army. This was incredibly nieve. Putin will have taken this as a personal insult, and you can be sure that Russia's lack of response was related to this
Azerbaijan doesn’t take Nagorno Karabakh! Nagorno Karabakh has been always Azerbaijan land where mostly Armenian lives.

It is exceptionally unlikely, but there is a route to lasting peace here if Armenia and Azerbaijan can sit down to serious talks without France, Germany, OR Turkey involved. The international community has largely ignored Nagorno-Karabakh because it is Azerbaijan putting down a separatist movement in their own territory. However, if they attack Armenia's internationally recognized territory, the response will be much different. However, Azerbaijan has the upper hand and could negotiate a trade corridor in lieu of directly annexing the land. This solution could calm things down significantly, I doubt it happens due to the hostilities between the two peoples.
@Maurvir3197. You're right about France and Germany. The fact they're trying to enter these talks are ridiculous, they don't have the ability to force any sort of outcome on either party. No full peace treaty between these two nations will hold weight unless Russia, Turkey and Iran are also party to the deal. All are close enough to project power into that region and have interests there. Also the Azeris don't need to negotiate a trade corridor. It has already been negotiated, it is part of the 2020 ceasefire agreement Armenia and Azerbaijan signed in 2020.

I agree thar armenians were also living in NK together with Azerbaijanis under Azerbaijan SSR. But those 7 districst were 99% populated by Azerbaijanis. What was the reason to occupy those lands?

Watching this a week after the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel, the comments at 16'50" stunned me; amazing prescience! So, not only did Iran want to stop the Saudi-Israel normalization deal, it wanted to reduce the possibility of the corridor being forced open; in both cases, getting Israel out of the equation was the goal. All this happened within the space of a few weeks! Iran is making a big nuisance of itself at a time when Russia is a limp dick impotent player. Great video BTW.
Friendship with the USA is fatal. Since 2018, under Pashi Neyan, Armenia decided to become an ally of the USA and allowed the US army to come to Armenia, but the US army decided not to move their fingers for Armenia. That should be a great lesson for every other country.
Türkiye is supporting Azerbaijan, and Erdogan and Putin have agreed to crash Armenia because they started leaning towards the US and NATO. Simple geo-strategic move. Armenia stays under the influence of Russia, and Azerbaijan under Türkiye.
Correction: The dark green territories were not "ceded by the Azeris to the Armenians" (2:20) in the First Karabakh war. They were violently occupied by Armenia with its Azerbaijani inhabitants forcibly removed (in much, much harsher conditions than the Armenians leaving Karabakh today).
As a Turk of Kurdish origin, I would like to say that Armenia is completely guilty. In the past, they committed genocide against civilians and occupied Azerbaijan's lands. Now they should get out of the lands they occupied.
@@KwaserIGuess No, I am a Turk of Kurdish origin who supports the Kemalist Revolution, secularism and the Turkish Nation State. I am also opposed to Erdogan.
Karabakh was mostly an Azeri -Armenian internal problem and no one else really cared much for it one way or the other. Zangezur corridor is important for Turkey and Iran and crucial for Armenia. If Azerbaijan decides to push the issue, I'd be surprised if quite a few Turkish soldiers who are "on leave" don't end up joining Azerbaijan.
Turks have soldier in Azerbaijan now and have had them there since the 2020 war which they were a major player in. during that war the Armenians lost over 5000 soldiers, it might also be true that the Azeri's, Turks, Syrian rebels and whomever were there lost more but the numbers of soldiers on the Azeri side was huge, the Armenians were killing and there was no end in sight they just kept coming forward, drones also played a big part in helping the Azeri's
No doubt Azerbaijan under its current ruler wants to go further and take the Zangezur area between Iran and Armenia by force if it can, they literally said that in their media Turkey and Israel providing full support to the plan and Russia seems weak at the moment or maybe quietly agreeing with the plan. President (for life) Aliev reminds me of Bin Salman of Saudi Arabia about 10 years ago before attacking Yemen, He also at the time was in sugar rush of Big Oil money and new weapons and absolute power and public obedient that only ruthless dictators can achieve. But Surprisingly, in spite of all these winning cards the dream of Aliev and Azerbaijan's ultra nationalists will remain an unreachable dream! Both Azerbaijan and Turkey know Iran will Not allow this changes to its border to happen. It would practically block Iran from the main part of Caucasus with great economic and political disadvantages. Iran's political and military officials warned they would go to war if they have to and prevent this big loss to them. Azerbaijan knows it is no match to Iran even with help and weapons from Turkey or Israel. Turkey will not go to war with Iran for dozens of reason and few would be it will loss political cooperation and big economic advantages that has with Iran and beside its military is not that strong that they advertise. Erdogan got the lesson in Syria when he went against Iran public and private advise right before the civil war erupted.
You are overestimating Iran, they can’t do anything other than giving empty threats because Türkiye is ready to declare full scale war on Iran if they intervenes the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan is our precious brother. 🇹🇷❤️🇦🇿
There's something you forgot, brother. Half of Iran's population is Azerbaijani. They said that if Iran attacks Azerbaijan, we will destroy Iran from within. 35 million Azerbaijanis live there.😂
Azerbaijan was smart enough to keep the war in Karabakh since it is part of Azerbaijan by global community. But Azerbaijan may not stop there. Azerbaijan wants a direct road to Nakhchevan and if that means erasing Armenia, they will go at length. My experience with the Turkic history shows that, the Turks may sacrifice even more and more men to the battlefield if this means trying to control, even with devastating cost. Turkey and Azerbaijan are cultural allies and won't be afraid to turn the region into a meat grinder. Armenia's miserable location has only become worsened when it only has Russia and Iran as guarantors. Yet Russia is abandoning Armenia due to the pro-West government, whereas Iran is the only one that will defend Armenia, but to which extent? Iran is being surrounded by enemies more than ever. They have Pakistan that Iran disdains due to Pakistan being Turkey's ally; an Afghanistan that, originally receptive, now ended up getting more feuds due to Taliban. Then, Iran is facing the growing Turkish expansion in Iraq and Syria, especially when Turkish troops are still in the north of both countries, which undermine Iran's Crescent plan. Armenia is the last nation Iran can enjoy some free movement, so if Azerbaijan conquers Armenia for Nakhchevan, it will be devastating for Iran. Armenia is truly unlucky here.
I don't understand, why is important who "owns" this peice of land. I don't see natural resources or seaports at stake, so why are they fighting over it?
The question of the Zangesur corridor exists in the first place because already the Zars (starting with Peter I.) wanted to separate the Caucasian Turks from the Ottoman Turks. And the borders of Armenia today look like that because the Red Zars decided on the same. They decided to give Karabakh to Azerbaijan because that land is open towards the East but has a mountain range towards Armenia. It made more sense for economic development to give it to Azerbaijan. There are so many things to know to be able to take part in this discussion
The best strategy for Armenia is to join as an autonomous province of Iran which would solve problems Russia and America can not solve. Iran constitution allows Christianity and would be good economically and there would be no landlocked Armenia any more.
Kinda awkward timing since the Turkish president just announced that if Armenia doesn’t want to do it, they will have it go through Iran. Unless he’s lying of course.
For those who don't know - from 500 BC till 1813 this region was (most of the time) a part of the Persian Empire (few exeptions - Alexander Macedonian, Jengis Khan, Tamerlane). In 1813 Persia lost control over in Caucasus and handed it over to the Russian Empire. The name of this region at that moment was The Khanate of Karabakh and capital was the city of Khankendi. From 1813 till 1917 the region of Karabakh was a part of Russian Empire; that's the time when Russians moved thousands of anatholian Armenians to the Caucasus (Georgia and Azerbaijan). From 1918 to 1920 Karabakh was a part of independent Democratic Republic of Azerbaijan. From 1920 to 1991 Karabakh was a part of a Soviet Republic of Azerbaijan. Till now, Karabakh is internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan. So, tell me where and when was this region a part of any Armenian country, and when was it's name "artsakh"?! Please show some proves, if you have such.
Armenians already had their own state in the 8th century BC. In Hellenistic and Roman times, this state was strong enough to keep its cultural distinctiveness and served as a safe buffer between great powers of the time. They were the first country to adopt Christianity (before the Roman Empire) and until the 11th century they successfully resisted the Arabs to keep their independence. Azerbaijanis are descendants of Turkic tribes who arrived in these areas in the 11th century as part of the Seljuk Turkic State. Armenians were always sacrificed by European powers for their own particular interests-> good example was inaction during the Armenian Genocide (still denied by Turkey and Azerbaijan) and as a result 2/3 of the Armenia territory is currently under Turkish occupation since 1920-ties, including the historic capital of Ani (a UNESCO heritage site). The current division of the Caucasus is an inheritance of Stalin, who deliberately set the borders so that the locals would be at each other's throats and appeal to the "authority" of Moscow. Cause of such deliberate policy the collapse of the USSR was bloody, among others: the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict and the forgotten war over Transnistria. Europe, as usual, has already sold the Armenians in exchange for Azerbaijani oil and natural gas and good relations with Ankara (which pursue nationalism and "panturkism"). The borders with Turkey and Azerbaijan have been closed for a long time, the only trade window to the outside world are two roads and a railway line through Georgia, which itself has problems.
Wrong ! Most if not all of Azerbaijanis are taylish ! All because the Turks came and colonized and forced Azerbaijanis to follow the Turkish lifestyle it doesn’t make them Turk! They still speak their language and follow their old religion. If you ain’t from Azerbaijan don’t speak on what you don’t know . Last time I checked Armenians recognized the cadussi( taylish ) people as an old tribe in that region
Here we go again...Political facts have nothing to do with origins...With this logic then who was the owner of the place in 7th BC? u can continue to count back like this forever...
Azeris are Turkic speaking but they're not ethnically Turk. They're Taylish (an Iranian ethnicity) people who were Turkicised under the Seljuks and now speak Azeri which is a Turkic language.
16:00 Not Armenian, it is Azerbajan teritory! Sovjets give the teritory Armenians for geopolitical reasons and replace Azarbajan people. Zangazur is Azarbajans territory. 30 years illegal on Azarbajan teritory, France and Switzerland steel gold from there, you must be juged! You Must pay Trillion of dollars!

I propose to send them to Armenia, let them help their brothers. I am not a racist, but because of such people I will relate to all Hindu, Iranians, etc.
I believe it's a nice summary, however there is one important fact missing. That being that just at the end of August the president of Artsakh had to resign, and the new elected government stayed in power for 11 days after which they sign the agreement with the Azeris. Many signs shows that this change of leaders were forced by Russians. Also what remains a question is if Russia still want to keep their peacekeepers on the territory they need to leave some Armenian pololation to have a reason to stay. Until now almost 50000 people have left.

Azerbaijan is literally Ukraine here. Reclaiming internationally recognised territories invaded by a neighboor. If Armenia was right to invade Karabakh in past, you should leave Russian-majority parts of Ukraine to Russia.
@@hakankayaoglu1435 it's not the same thing, people of autonomous region have the right to decide whether they want to live in Azerbaijan or not. That's why the UN didn't reject Russian desire for recognizing Crimea as a part of Russia. They said that Crimea can decide its fate, but there has to be a voting. Where do people of Crimea want to live in Ukraine or Russia, or become an independent state. But Russia rejected it, Russia said that they already made the voting, and Crimeans want to live in Russia, that is the problem, that's why Crimean status is disputable, but Donetsk, Lugansk,Kherson , Zaporozhye aren't autonomous regions of Ukraine, they can't decide. So no, Azerbaijan isn't Ukraine here, Azerbaijan is Serbia here and Karabah people are Kosovo albanians
If ceding Zengezur corridor to Azerbaijan will end Armenia's decades long economic isolation, so be it. If I were Pashinyan I would try to work out a deal that will both allow Armenians to freely move goods & people between Armenia proper and Karabakh, and Azeris to establish transport links with Nakhchivan. Once Turkey will formalise its relations with Armenia, the path to NATO membership will be wide open both for Armenians and Azeris. Ordinary Armenians will greatly benefit from this situation.

Get educated about the topic then make a video.. all lands belong to Azerbaijan based on international Law.

Even, after the war broke out there are still thousands of armenians resided in Azerbaijan. if you google 1918 Azerbaijani Map, you will see even more lands belong to Azerbaijan but we respect international law - if Armenia signs Peace Treaty and recognizes our territorial integrity we'll do same.

No?
It would be a bit like the US not coming to the aid of France if they were invaded, because France did not support the US "special military operation" in Iraq. Surely, a cause for diplomatic tension between the two countries, but not cause for dismantling of the alliance. If France on the other hand would have refused to defend the US if they were invaded, they could most likely not rely on support if they were invaded later.
Simply put, a defensive pact obliges members to come to aid with defence, not attack.
I could be wrong about how the CSTO works though.

Regarding the Karabakh conflict and possible Nakhchevan conflict, I think that it will be fascinating to see how Saudi Arabia, Israel and Iran will react. Iran is Armenia's oldest ally and won't abandon the Armenians, and Armenia is, so far, favoring Iran more than any partner, even Russia doesn't receive that. Iran won't turn its back to Armenia, if Azerbaijan really attacks Armenia via Karabakh.
Saudi Arabia is another fascinating case. Initially Saudi Arabia supported Azerbaijan, but since 2010s, anti-Turkish sentiment resulting in warming of relations with Armenia. Saudi Arabia was the one that helped the United States to finally recognize the Armenian genocide in 2019, and was also the one that imposed economic blockades against both Turkey and Azerbaijan during the Karabakh War of 2020s (which ended with Azerbaijan victorious). Just two years ago, Mohammed Bin Salman welcomed Armenia's President into their country, the first ever visit by an Armenian President to Saudi Arabia despite having no diplomatic ties; yet at the same time refused to invite Aliyev and Erdogan to the event. Saudi Arabia also finances the Kurds against Turkey in both Syria and Iraq, which Ankara despised.
Israel is another case, which is interesting here. Israel nurtured an anti-Turkish alliance as far as 2017, which included France, Saudi Arabia, Cyprus, Libya (the Benghazi part), Greece, Egypt, UAE, Bulgaria, Jordan and Bahrain, as well as unofficial member India. Mossad chief Yossi Cohen even shocked his guests by naming Turkey and Azerbaijan as major threats for peace in the region after discussion with the Saudis, Egyptians, Emiratis and even the Greeks. While Saudi Arabia is the leader of this alliance, Israel is the mastermind. This deliberate statement deeply upset Azerbaijan, since this reveals that Azerbaijan is seen by Israel as just a lacky of Turkey despite the initially very strong alliance between Baku and Israel and Israel's support for Azerbaijan, partly against Iran. But that changed because of Erdogan and Israel deliberately supported the recognition of Armenian genocide by the US in 2019 and 2021 contributed to this outcome.
So far, none of the trio have recognized Karabakh to be independent, but firmly Azerbaijani soil. But if Azerbaijan goes too far, there shall be alert. I think Azerbaijan sees it well and won't go further. There is a sense that Azerbaijanis are increasingly resentful of Saudi Arabia and Iran, while at the same time they aren't as positive to Israel as used to be. Azerbaijan and Turkey are overall, share the same culture, heritage and history and Azerbaijanis would consider themselves pro-Turkish before anything else.

Only in such a scenario will we ever have the opportunity of longterm peace and reconciliation

Russia not helping Armenia by keeping the Lachlan corridor open for food and medicine and essential supplies, was not just because Russia is weak and pre- occupied with the war in Ukraine.

It is exceptionally unlikely, but there is a route to lasting peace here if Armenia and Azerbaijan can sit down to serious talks without France, Germany, OR Turkey involved.
The international community has largely ignored Nagorno-Karabakh because it is Azerbaijan putting down a separatist movement in their own territory. However, if they attack Armenia's internationally recognized territory, the response will be much different.
However, Azerbaijan has the upper hand and could negotiate a trade corridor in lieu of directly annexing the land. This solution could calm things down significantly, I doubt it happens due to the hostilities between the two peoples.
@Maurvir3197.
You're right about France and Germany. The fact they're trying to enter these talks are ridiculous, they don't have the ability to force any sort of outcome on either party.
No full peace treaty between these two nations will hold weight unless Russia, Turkey and Iran are also party to the deal. All are close enough to project power into that region and have interests there.
Also the Azeris don't need to negotiate a trade corridor. It has already been negotiated, it is part of the 2020 ceasefire agreement Armenia and Azerbaijan signed in 2020.
A deal with Azeris (Turks?) Is not worth the paper it is written on

Armenians occupied the whole Karabakh region (Nagorno Karbakah + 7 surrounding districts) with the military support from Russia. ~ 600,000 Azerbaijanis became IDPs. I agree thar armenians were also living in NK together with Azerbaijanis under Azerbaijan SSR. But those 7 districst were 99% populated by Azerbaijanis. What was the reason to occupy those lands? You don’t have an answer. Armenians should thank Azerbaijani government that they offered them to become Azerbaijani citizen and continue living in NK or they’re more than welcome to leave if they want. But Azerbaijanis didn’t have that chance. They were getting killed brutally. Just read about Khojaly Massacre. There are many pictures captures from Azerbaijani and European photographers. You can’t hide the history and what you did. But there’s something called KARMA. You’ll not die before living the same thing you did to others. That’s why Azerbaijani governmet let woman and children leave the border but capture the men who participated in 1990’s war and did crime.
Long story short, Nagorno Karabakh is internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan. Even Armenia recognize it as a part of Azerbaijan and doesn’t recognize fake republic of artsax (which doesn’t exist anymore) as an independent country.
I wish peace for the South Caucasus region, and I hope Armenia will not listen to their diaspora who live the best life in US and forcing citizens of Armenia to go to a war and I also hope that Armenia will learn from their mistakes and will try to fix their relationship with Azerbaijan and Turkey, so they can benefit economically and citizens can live a better life.

Friendship with the USA is fatal. Since 2018, under Pashi Neyan, Armenia decided to become an ally of the USA and allowed the US army to come to Armenia, but the US army decided not to move their fingers for Armenia. That should be a great lesson for every other country.
Türkiye is supporting Azerbaijan, and Erdogan and Putin have agreed to crash Armenia because they started leaning towards the US and NATO. Simple geo-strategic move. Armenia stays under the influence of Russia, and Azerbaijan under Türkiye.
This is because Russia was abandoning them.

Correction: The dark green territories were not "ceded by the Azeris to the Armenians" (2:20) in the First Karabakh war. They were violently occupied by Armenia with its Azerbaijani inhabitants forcibly removed (in much, much harsher conditions than the Armenians leaving Karabakh today).

President (for life) Aliev reminds me of Bin Salman of Saudi Arabia about 10 years ago before attacking Yemen, He also at the time was in sugar rush of Big Oil money and new weapons and absolute power and public obedient that only ruthless dictators can achieve. But Surprisingly, in spite of all these winning cards the dream of Aliev and Azerbaijan's ultra nationalists will remain an unreachable dream! Both Azerbaijan and Turkey know Iran will Not allow this changes to its border to happen. It would practically block Iran from the main part of Caucasus with great economic and political disadvantages. Iran's political and military officials warned they would go to war if they have to and prevent this big loss to them. Azerbaijan knows it is no match to Iran even with help and weapons from Turkey or Israel. Turkey will not go to war with Iran for dozens of reason and few would be it will loss political cooperation and big economic advantages that has with Iran and beside its military is not that strong that they advertise. Erdogan got the lesson in Syria when he went against Iran public and private advise right before the civil war erupted.

Azerbaijan was smart enough to keep the war in Karabakh since it is part of Azerbaijan by global community. But Azerbaijan may not stop there. Azerbaijan wants a direct road to Nakhchevan and if that means erasing Armenia, they will go at length. My experience with the Turkic history shows that, the Turks may sacrifice even more and more men to the battlefield if this means trying to control, even with devastating cost. Turkey and Azerbaijan are cultural allies and won't be afraid to turn the region into a meat grinder.
Armenia's miserable location has only become worsened when it only has Russia and Iran as guarantors. Yet Russia is abandoning Armenia due to the pro-West government, whereas Iran is the only one that will defend Armenia, but to which extent? Iran is being surrounded by enemies more than ever. They have Pakistan that Iran disdains due to Pakistan being Turkey's ally; an Afghanistan that, originally receptive, now ended up getting more feuds due to Taliban. Then, Iran is facing the growing Turkish expansion in Iraq and Syria, especially when Turkish troops are still in the north of both countries, which undermine Iran's Crescent plan. Armenia is the last nation Iran can enjoy some free movement, so if Azerbaijan conquers Armenia for Nakhchevan, it will be devastating for Iran.
Armenia is truly unlucky here.

For those who don't know - from 500 BC till 1813 this region was (most of the time) a part of the Persian Empire (few exeptions - Alexander Macedonian, Jengis Khan, Tamerlane). In 1813 Persia lost control over in Caucasus and handed it over to the Russian Empire. The name of this region at that moment was The Khanate of Karabakh and capital was the city of Khankendi. From 1813 till 1917 the region of Karabakh was a part of Russian Empire; that's the time when Russians moved thousands of anatholian Armenians to the Caucasus (Georgia and Azerbaijan). From 1918 to 1920 Karabakh was a part of independent Democratic Republic of Azerbaijan. From 1920 to 1991 Karabakh was a part of a Soviet Republic of Azerbaijan. Till now, Karabakh is internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan. So, tell me where and when was this region a part of any Armenian country, and when was it's name "artsakh"?! Please show some proves, if you have such.
between 200 bc and 300 ad this was part of Armenia proper then through history it was Armenian time to time
Armenians already had their own state in the 8th century BC. In Hellenistic and Roman times, this state was strong enough to keep its cultural distinctiveness and served as a safe buffer between great powers of the time. They were the first country to adopt Christianity (before the Roman Empire) and until the 11th century they successfully resisted the Arabs to keep their independence. Azerbaijanis are descendants of Turkic tribes who arrived in these areas in the 11th century as part of the Seljuk Turkic State.
Armenians were always sacrificed by European powers for their own particular interests-> good example was inaction during the Armenian Genocide (still denied by Turkey and Azerbaijan) and as a result 2/3 of the Armenia territory is currently under Turkish occupation since 1920-ties, including the historic capital of Ani (a UNESCO heritage site). The current division of the Caucasus is an inheritance of Stalin, who deliberately set the borders so that the locals would be at each other's throats and appeal to the "authority" of Moscow. Cause of such deliberate policy the collapse of the USSR was bloody, among others: the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict and the forgotten war over Transnistria.
Europe, as usual, has already sold the Armenians in exchange for Azerbaijani oil and natural gas and good relations with Ankara (which pursue nationalism and "panturkism"). The borders with Turkey and Azerbaijan have been closed for a long time, the only trade window to the outside world are two roads and a railway line through Georgia, which itself has problems.
Wrong ! Most if not all of Azerbaijanis are taylish ! All because the Turks came and colonized and forced Azerbaijanis to follow the Turkish lifestyle it doesn’t make them Turk! They still speak their language and follow their old religion. If you ain’t from Azerbaijan don’t speak on what you don’t know . Last time I checked Armenians recognized the cadussi( taylish ) people as an old tribe in that region
Here we go again...Political facts have nothing to do with origins...With this logic then who was the owner of the place in 7th BC? u can continue to count back like this forever...
armenia already knew west is unreliable and they still trust west? whatever happen armenia deserve it

Where do people of Crimea want to live in Ukraine or Russia, or become an independent state. But Russia rejected it, Russia said that they already made the voting, and Crimeans want to live in Russia, that is the problem, that's why Crimean status is disputable, but Donetsk, Lugansk,Kherson , Zaporozhye aren't autonomous regions of Ukraine, they can't decide. So no, Azerbaijan isn't Ukraine here, Azerbaijan is Serbia here and Karabah people are Kosovo albanians
Thats why you have to prepare for war all the time. Even Nato won;t save anyone, they will think twice if it is worth saving small countries.
If ceding Zengezur corridor to Azerbaijan will end Armenia's decades long economic isolation, so be it. If I were Pashinyan I would try to work out a deal that will both allow Armenians to freely move goods & people between Armenia proper and Karabakh, and Azeris to establish transport links with Nakhchivan. Once Turkey will formalise its relations with Armenia, the path to NATO membership will be wide open both for Armenians and Azeris. Ordinary Armenians will greatly benefit from this situation.
We don't suffer with your blockade, cuz we're not lmao, your turkish companies work in Armenia, I can find your food, your shampoos, your clothes in Armenia, in what kind of blockade we are? There will never be a corridor through our territory
@@What_if233 then war torn Georgia and rogue state Iran will continue to be the only door 🚪 Armenia will ever have. Armenia will stay under Russian influence although Russia obviously betrayed Armenia in the conflict.
This new sesson is getting spicy.
