Strategic Council Online – Interview: A researcher of geopolitical affairs considered cooperation in the field of energy as the main priority of relations between Beijing and Baku and stated: The recent agreement between the Republic of Azerbaijan and China, while covering issues related to the import and export of oil and gas and development of new energies, also helps to advance China’s approach in resolving or reducing tensions in the Caucasus.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on European affairs stated that the institutional actions of the European Union against the Republic of Azerbaijan are followed cautiously, and saying that, on the one hand, the European Union does not want to act passively regarding the Caucasus issues, but on the other hand, Europe’s need for this country’s gas has caused it to take cautious steps regarding the sending of military equipment to Armenia, and in this regard, all the military equipment that was made in the agreement between France and Armenia has not been sent. Only defense systems, which are very cautious and more limited than the previous agreement, have been sent.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A university professor said that the nationalist movements in Armenia believe that Moscow’s measures not only have no benefit for them but have also imposed some costs; and added that in a situation where Russia, which is currently involved in Ukraine, acting in its interests, Armenia has decided that it would be more beneficial to closely cooperate with the international community while pursuing its interests.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international relations university professor stated that Paris is trying not to allow the situation in the Caucasus to progress as desired by the Republic of Azerbaijan and Turkey and hopes the situation can be shaped as much as possible in line with French interests through military assistance, adding: France, after Russia, is the second largest foreign investor in Armenia since 2016.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on international law, stating that with the blocking of the Lachin Corridor nine months ago and the surrender of Karabakh, Moscow’s 2020 agreement has practically collapsed, added: For the first time after the collapse of the Soviet Union, a solid anti-Russian atmosphere has been created in Armenia and the US, while considering the Russians to be the cause of the current situation, is trying to show Russia as passive and useless and pull the rug from that country’s foot in the region and strengthen its presence in Armenia.
